Evelyn who played Suelen, Scarlett's younger sister in Gone with the wind. She left her 1st husband and he committed suicide and she never left another man. She made them leave her. Men and women love this story she knew how to walk the walk and talk the talk. Keyes holds very little back in sharing her experience as a young woman trying to make a name for herself in Hollywood. Early on, she describes arriving in California and walking what seemed like hundreds of miles to studio lots, looking for opportunities to be discovered - or at least leave her name and number, in case a dancer was needed for a future project. As mentioned above, she ended up signing with Paramount, where she began to land a few roles, but was also asked to change a few things about herself. Cecil B. DeMille, for instance, insisted that she lose her Southern accent immediately and begin taking acting lessons instead of continuing with dance. This is not just a career autobiography, but a personal one. I'd actually say the book is much more about her life than it is about her career, with fewer on-set tales told as the book progresses. Keyes devotes a fair bit of the book to discussion of her off-screen romances and dating experiences, sparing no details regarding brief fling with Anthony Quinn (which was halted by Cecil B. DeMille, advising Keyes against dating "that half-breed"), her marriages, or her countless experiences with sleazy higher-ups attempting to take advantage of her. The men of the movie industry certainly don't come across as stand-up guys by even the slightest measure based on Keyes' experiences, which I can't say I was surprised by, though I was surprised she included so many of these stories and details in the book. She was very naive when she made the trek to Hollywood and began her career, which she acknowledges while telling these stories, without being hyper-critical of herself.
