She has a million-watt smile that has made her the highest paid actress in the history of the movie business. From her incredible box-office hit 'Pretty Woman' to her Academy-Award-winning performance in 'Erin Brockovich', Julia Roberts has delighted audiences in over 30 films. As famous as she is for her movie roles, she is equally known for the men she has dated, married, and left behind. From Kiefer Sutherland to Liam Leeson to Lyle Lovett to Daniel Day-Lewis, she has a trail of broken hearts behind her. A tale of talent, ambition and drive, this behind-the-scenes look at Julia Roberts unravels the mystery of the woman known as America's Sweetheart.

Review
"If you want an overview of her career and life, then you should look no further. There are far more expensive tomes out there which don't cover half as much." -- Brave New World, November 2003.

Fun Read,
By A Customer
This review is from: Julia Roberts: America's Sweetheart (Paperback)
I'm not a huge fan of Julia Roberts, but I decided to pick up this book and I thought it was a really fun read. Its light, easy to read and quick. I read it while on vacation and thought it was perfect for the time I spent by the pool. Mark Bego really knows his subject. I learned a lot and am definitely a fan. I will read anything else Mark writes...especially on my next vaction!

Superficial rehash,
By A Customer
This review is from: Julia Roberts: America's Sweetheart (Paperback)
No new information. No new insights. Not even a very interesting approach to old information. The whole book is just cut & paste. The author, Mark Bego, just strings together a bunch of quotes from two movie guides and some popular magazines. There are 40 small black & white photos, about half publicity stills and the rest reprinted from news magazines. The book has no index.

Fluff,
By
This review is from: Julia Roberts: America's Sweetheart (Paperback)
Absolute fluff. More of a high school type research from magazines - that's probably an insult to high schoolers. Gathered quotes from newspapers and magazines. At least they admitted it was "compiled". BORING! Worthless. Don't waste your money
