More Fun, Because Less Real,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Fortune (Paperback)
Korda's "Queenie" and "Curtain" were interesting, though too somber and ultimately tiresome, because each was based (until the last third) rather too closely on real, and always unhappy, actors and producers. "The Fortune" is meant to remind you of Nelson Rockefeller's family, but Korda veers off so quickly into a polished TV-movie romance plot -- young, poor, brave farm girl loves old, super-rich, lonely city guy, and both have dark family secrets -- that it's laughs and sighs all the way.My mind-movie casting was Catherine Zeta-Jones and Mitch Ryan. The plum role is, as usual in this genre, the Matriarch -- maybe Tippi Hedren. In any case, a fine heroine and a good read.

An excellent book revealing the unimaginable,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Fortune (Paperback)
Wow! Korda has outdone himself once again with fiction. This novels shows us how presumptuous one can be with more than half a billion dollars-- meaning bribing the police force to discard files and erase evidence of murder files. As a young woman, Korda exemplifies the will power of a young woman like myself who must over come the pressures of fame, power, and most of all, her distasteful in-laws.
