Looks good, cheers Windy.
This one got under the radar as they say
All My Flashbacks: The Autobiography of Lewis Gilbert: Amazon.co.uk: Lewis Gilbert: Books
Should be a treasure trove
Published 5 April, just ordered my copy.
Reynolds & Hearn - for books about Film, Music, Television and the Performing Arts
Thanks for the tip off. Definitely one for the heavy-hints-for-my-birthday-present routine.
Lewis Gilbert is such an articulate man and entertaining speaker, I had the pleasure of attending a screening of "Moonraker"and talk by the director at the NFT in London last year, it was during the Cubby Brocolli film season and naturally quite a few Bond films were screened. I've ordered my copy of his book which Im sure will be fascinating reading, thanks for that link![]()
and of course he is a Gooner!
This is wonderful news. Gilbert (Alfie, Educating Rita, Moonraker...) also directed three Bogarde films. Thank you, Windthrop.Originally Posted by Windthrop

Hello, Merton Park,Originally Posted by Merton Park
I do like your ID name.I can't be at Mr. Gilbert's book signing so this is the next best thing! I wouldn't have known about Reynolds & Hearn if you hadn't posted the link. Many thanks.
Best wishes,
Barbara
'All My Flashbacks' - Lewis Gilbert's autobiography was released on April 5th through Reynolds & Hearne. I ordered my copy at the end of February but still have not received it. I had an email from them three weeks ago saying they would be taking delivery of the first print run that week and would be despatching orders later in the week. Before I follow this up, has anyone else here received their copy yet? Anyone else still waiting?
I bought one at the launch at BAFTA on 9 April. So it is in print, though this may have been an advance batch, sold direct by the publisher.
Thanks Bedelia.Originally Posted by Bedelia
I think I'll give them a call in the morning and chase it up!
I spoke to them today, they say copies are being posted tomorrow.
Thanks MP, that's excellent news!Originally Posted by Merton Park

Almost finished mine now - a cracking read with some great anecdotes!Originally Posted by theuofc
Enjoy, Barbara!![]()
I can imagine how fascinating a read it is! I'm biting my fingernails until it arrives. Can't wait for Mr. Gilbert's comments on his films, actors, and crew. The real clincher was learning from Merton Park that it would be signed. Yippee!Originally Posted by Number Six
