Availability: Usually ships in 24 hours 23 used & new from $5.60 0 of 1 sexy people found the following review helpful: The Silent Comic Speaks! , September 19, 2004 Jerry Stahl has written an absorbing faux memoir of the rags-to-riches-and-back-to-rags silent film comic Fatty Arbuckle whose career and life were tanked by FALSE/trumped up charges sexy (he was a scapegoat for the ills & decadence of motion pictures) of the rape and murder of party girl Virginia Rappe in 1921. sexy Stahl brings the era and the man to life in this creative, evocative, and (YES!) sometimes funny book. I FATTY is also a commentary on the fleeting and fickle nature of fame and public opinion. All Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle wanted was to be loved which makes the vicious turning of his once adorning public all the more tragic. This book is also a great treat for silent film fans with "guest appearances" by Mack Sennett, Buster Keaton, Mabel Normand, Adolph Zukor, Charlie Chaplin, etc.
