Welcome to Hollywood, circa 1950, at the end of the Golden Age. A remarkably handsome teenager is discovered by a big-time movie agent. With his open smile and picture of innocence, he quickly becomes a star, his face gracing countless magazine covers before the movies and studio contracts follow. This young boy, Tab Hunter—a Hollywood name—represents a true product of the industry, evolving from a stable boy into a movie star. His journey is marked by a mother who provided materially but lacked emotional support, and a secret that both tormented and motivated him. In his account, Hunter reveals the experience of being a movie star during the decline of the studio era, treated like a commodity and dictated to about his public persona. He shares the struggles of being a gay man, initially confused and later trapped by an innocent image. When he voiced dissatisfaction with mediocre roles, he learned the harsh reality of being disposable in Hollywood. Though his stardom lasted a decade, he continued to work in the profession he loved, earning respect from peers and the industry. Ultimately, this narrative is one of survival, capturing the highs of fame and the lows of rejection, the longing for love, and the reflections of a man who lived through it all.
