A HOLLYWOOD PLOT TWIST

'Basic Instinct' author writes book about faith

Joe Eszterhas' latest book is a shocker, but not the kind that made him rich and famous.

That’s a nice article, and I’m Protestant.

Thanks.

Joe went to Cathedral Latin , a Catholic boys school in Cleveland with my ex-husband. I find it refreshing that after some of the dark things he has written that he found himself again. Moving back to Cleveland suburbs didn’t hurt, Hollywierd is not real life, its all make-believe and decadent.
Good for him.....I look forward to reading his book.

The guy is a talented writer, just not a great screenwriter. He wrote some pretty good pieces for Rolling Stone back in the day, long before he went to Hollywood (or went Hollywood).

Too bad it was just a feeling instead of salvation. Won’t last.
