Critics Review
“A
“A tribute to Newman’s fun-loving spirit and fiscal generosity … . There’s not a self-righteous moment in Mr. Hotchner’s jokey, anecdotal account of their camaraderie … . They clearly shared a lot of good times over Budweisers and burgers, and Mr. Hotchner has the quotes and photos to prove it all … . The fun they had is unmistakable in these pages.”
—The New York Times
“Hotchner’s portrait of his pal is breezy and heartfelt. He obviously adored him. And reading his anecdotes of their high jinks together, it’s easy to see why … . The actor’s last words to him perfectly sum up their times together: ‘It’s been a hell of a ride.’”
