The A-list of stars includes critically acclaimed actor Geoffrey Rush, bigand small screen actress Portia di Rossi, character actor Hugo Weaving, award-winning director Phillip Noyce, and blockbuster star Nicole Kidman. In-depth interviews are provided in which the stars describe the glamour as well as the business of Hollywood, how they shot—or climbed—to the top, and how they've dealt with fame. Some, it is revealed, ambitiously pursued fame while for others Hollywood came knocking. Moving beyond personal stories, the book explores why so many of the best and brightest of Oz have risen to stardom in the States. Filled with red carpet moments and board room details, this thoughtful expose sheds new light on a trend that shows no signs of letting up.
