| Praise| "Grab a copy of this book....Mike Sacks manages the seemingly impossible: Squeezing funny, revealing anecdotes out of notoriously difficult-to-interview giants of the industry....It's like a DVD commentary track -- but with answers to questions you actually want to hear." - Mandy Stadtmiller 07/12/2009 "After devouring AND HERE'S THE KICKER..., a compulsively readable dissection of the comic mind by Vanity Fair staffer Mike Sacks, I want to give its author the highest praise any writer can give another: His book made me insanely...jealous....Sacks has written a book I wanted to write myself. Even more unforgivably, he's done a better job than I probably would have." - Nathan Rabin 08/11/2009 |
