Editorial Review Product Description Victoria adored him, and despite his harrowing schedule, their relationship was close.That is, until Price married his third wife, the headstrong and independent actress, Coral Browne.Victoria was a girl of twelve, and her new stepmother resented the strong relationship between father and daughter, and consequently did much to keep the two apart.Late in Price's life, however, he and his daughter were brought together again for some of their most memorable time together. In this elegant biography-cum-memoir, Victoria Price reveals a man both complex and human. An actor of range, he starred in both the film noir milestone Laura and the Biblical classic The Ten Commandments.As a "pre-war anti Nazi sympathizer," he was greylisted during the Red Scare of the 1950s-until, in a desperate gesture, he signed a secret oath that saved his career. And his passion for the arts gave him a second life as an erudite columnist and collector, even as his films graced drive-ins nationwide. Victoria Price's account life of her father is full and candid; both his passionate and charismatic public persona and his conflicted inner life are treated with curiosity and understanding. Vincent Price: A Daughter's Biography is, in short, the thorough-and uniquely intimate-life of a legend. Though this isdefinitely a loving memoir of her father, Victoria Price is notblinded by her affection for him. She gives an earnest attempt atpresenting the whole man--fact-checking and debunking a few cherishedfamily legends and unflinchingly reporting her father's youthfulanti-Semitism. (As Price grew more worldly and met some actual Jews,he reversed his position and became an active supporter of B'nai Brithand the Jewish Anti-Defamation League.) But A Daughter'sAutobiography's may best value may be as a handbook for actors:through the numerous ups and downs of his career, Price remained aconsummate professional. He never stopped working to improve hisskills, deliberately sidestepping romantic-lead parts to take on morechallenging roles, and was unfailingly generous to his costars. Atruly engrossing look at the noble character of one of the silverscreen's greatest villains. --Ali Davis Customer Reviews (31)

This one is Great.
The Price Club
the complete FEATURE films of Vincent Price
"Priceless" Pictures from an Actor's Life What sells this book is the pictures.Gorgeous stills from all of Price's movies-and quite a few from his life and stage plays, as well-plentifully stuff this beautiful coffee-table offering, on every page.Each film is discussed briefly, along with notes on its place in Price's life and ouevre, and accompanied by comments from his directors, producers and co-stars, and even Price, himself.Each picture is worth a thousand words, and some of them are really remarkable-for instance, cartoon cells from characters Price voiced for Disney studios and Miramax (The Great Mouse Detective and Arabian Knight) and Hanna-Barbera's The 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo.There are photos of him with famous seemingly unlikely latter-day admirers, like Alice Cooper.Caricatures and print-ads abound, such as Price selling Tuaca liqueur and Emba minks.Even his image on a long-forgotten Milton Bradley "Shrunken Head Apple Sculpture" kit is on display. If you're a fan, or looking for a Christmas or birthday present for someone who is, you just couldn't beat the bargain of this book at twice the "price"!

Notes of a Longtime Price Fan
If you love Vincent Price you will love this great book
No one like him! Wonderful Tribute to the Master of Menace Many of his films were for William Castle or Roger Corman, and often considered Drive-In fodder - such as The Fly, The Bat, House on Haunted Hill.It was the series of Poe movies that firmly linked the word horror to Price - and I think it was a term he enjoyed completely.At the time the Corman-Price-Poe series of movies - The Pit and The Pendulum (with Scream Queen Barbara Steele), House of Usher, Tomb of Ligeia, Masque of the Red Death, Haunted Palace (which was really Lovecraft not Poe, but what the hey...) were often dismissed.But looking back, you will see finely crafted horror films that are still a pleasure to what now, with many of Price's wonderful performances. Even later, he continued to seek out this same spotlight with the campy Theatre of Blood and the Dr. Phibes duo of films or the more serious Cry of the Banshee and Conqueror Worm (one of his most underrated performances). He scared us with a gentle boo, mesmerising with that voice, thrilled us with the wondrous menacing laugh, enchanted us with his devilish twinkle in his eye...he entertained us cooking fish in his dishwasher on Johnny Carson. His legacy lives and this is wonderful tribute to the master!Loaded with pictures, it is a must for Price fans.
