Indeed, the research is very thin. It didn't teach me much more about Tuesday Weld than I could've got from reading movie fan magazines.

This review is from: Pretty Poison: The Tuesday Weld Story (Hardcover)

If you enjoy slightly-trashy entertainment biographies, as do I, this one's not too bad. Tuesday was certainly an entertaining character for her time and quite a beauty. The only criticism I have of this book is that it is peppered with diversionary paragraphs on this or that celebrity. I suppose that is a typical way to fill space when the research is rather thin.
