Synopsis

A hardboiled American in postwar Europe, Eddie Constantine sang hit cabaret songs and starred in films made by Jean-Luc Godard, Rainer Werner Fassbinder and Lars Von Trier. In Out of My Father's Shadow, his daughter Tanya reveals even the most troubled moments endured by this famous family. Though born in America, Eddie Constantine is perhaps best remembered as a film actor in France and Germany. Eddie's unruffled charm, winning smile, and American credentials made him virtually untouchable. Europeans liked Constantine because he wasn't a pretty face he had savoir faire. Throughout much of his career, Constantine's daughter Tanya traveled with him, and this book comes from her perspective of their troubled familial relationship. It is a testament to his legend that Constantine emerges from the candour of his daughter's autobiography somehow strengthened by her revelations of the compulsions and insecurities he made those closest to him suffer. Out of My Father's Shadow presents us with universal truths about the difficulties experienced within family relationships, and takes us behind the curtain of celebrity and the fixed smiles of publicity photos in a way that few books ever do.
