About the Book

Durante sus primeros nueve años en el cine, la figura de Michael Douglas no llamaba la atención de nadie y ni siquiera su padre era capaz de presagiar el posterior triunfo de su hijo. Sus comienzos en el cine datan del año 60, cuando ayudaba en la realización de algunas de las películas en las que intervenía papá Kirk Douglas. Posteriormente le veríamos como un guapo actor en algunas películas sobre jóvenes idealistas que tratan de afrontar los problemas cotidianos. Pero no sería hasta el año 1972, con su papel como co-protagonista junto a Karl Malden en el thriller para la televisión "Las Calles de San Francisco" (ABC, 1972-77), cuando comenzó a brillar con luz propia. Junto a su trabajo para la televisión, consiguió destacar como productor ejecutivo en la obra de Milos Forman "Alguien voló sobre el nido del cuco" (1975), película de gran impacto que consiguió cinco Oscar, incluso una estatuilla a la Mejor Película compartida entre Douglas y Saul Zaentz. Después se introdujo con fuerza en una película junto a Jane Fonda y Jack Lemmon al co-producir "El síndrome de China" (1979), en la cual denunciaba un escape en una central nuclear, por la cual consiguieron una nominación Jean Fonda y Jack Lemmon. Con "Tras el corazón verde" (1984), Douglas empezó a ser considerado como un buen productor de películas, lo mismo que como buen actor. Su trabajo como Jack Colton, el simpático aventurero, trataba de emular al popular Indiana Jones, aunque era algo más torpe. Después se unió de nuevo a Kathleen Turner y Danny De Vito en una película de gran éxito, "La guerra de los Roses" (1989), en la cual dejaba bien claro la maldad de algunas mujeres en caso de divorcio, sin olvidarse de esa secuela titulada "La joya del Nilo" (1985) que le proporcionó mayor popularidad, en la cual trabajó igualmente junto a Turner y De Vito. Douglas consigue simultáneamente entusiasmar a las mujeres tanto como indignarlas, especialmente por su interés cinematográfico en demostrar que la maldad y la mezquindad no son exclusivas de los varones. Acusado de machista por grupos de feministas radicales, él se defiende alegando que solamente muestra una realidad sobre el comportamiento de las mujeres que nadie se atrevía a exponer en el cine. Arrogante y seguro de sí mismo, expone sin pudor el acoso sexual que padecen muchos hombres, perfectamente plasmado en películas como "Atracción fatal" (1984) y "Acoso" (1994), denunciando la hipocresía de los grupos feministas que insisten en denunciar la maldad de los varones y esconder la de las mujeres. Anteriormente y como demostrando a quienes le acusaban de machista que era el menos sexista de los mortales, interpretó "Instinto básico", película escándalo en la cual las mujeres son asesinas, ladronas y malvadas, los mismos defectos que habitualmente se muestran en los varones sin que nadie arme el escándalo. Es premiado con un Oscar por su trabajo en "Wall Street" (1987) de Oliver Stone y un año después formó la Función Stonebridge, Inc., que produjo "Línea mortal" de Joel Schumacher (1990) y "Radio Flyer" de Richard Donner (1992), consiguiendo revitalizar los Estudios Victorine de Francia.
