Entertaining, light, funny. Quick listen. Isherwood is a fine author capturing a moment in the English film industry of the 1930s.
As a classic film fan, I loved the inside jokes. Example: “...I've seen the Russian film. It is the classic sex triangle between a girl with thick legs, a boy, and a tractor.”
As satires about the film industry go, it's pretty average, lacking the incisiveness needed to elevate the material. The last four pages add a bit of depth that was absent in the text.
