Summary
In 1971, Lina Lamont released an autobiography titled Monumental Disaster: The Lina Lamont Story. It didn’t sell very well—by this time, hers was no longer a recognizable name and anyone who did know of her was unlikely to want to hear what she had to say. However, it provides a fascinating insight into the inner workings of Hollywood and how everything really went down in 1927.
