I read a good review in the newspaper about the new book by Brooke Shields called 'There was a little girl'. It's on my list now. She talks about her relationship with her strong, yet alcoholic mom. It sounds open and honest. Apparently it took her 9 months to write, and it wasn't cathartic. One interesting tidbit was that Susan Sarandon slapped her 9 times in different takes of one scene in the movie 'Pretty Baby'. Brooke's mom hinted it might have been some resentment due to Brooke having the lead role in the movie. Brooke sounds like a real survivor.
