Easy Street (the Hard Way)

A Memoir

De: Ron Perlman, Michael Largo

Narrado por: Ron Perlman

The candid, hilarious, and inspiring memoir of the iconic star of Beauty and the Beast, the Hellboy movies, and Sons of Anarchy.

A classically trained actor who cut his teeth in the East Village's off-Broadway scene, Ron Perlman - a Golden Globe winner with starring roles in the Hellboy, Drive, Pacific Rim, and Sons of Anarchy - has traveled an offbeat path to showbiz success. His story involves rising from New York's tough Washington Heights neighborhood, enduring incredible hardships, and ignoring the naysayers who taunted him for his distinctive looks. It's a tale that demonstrates the power of persistence.

With a filmography of nearly 200 credits working alongside countless stars during his 40-year career, Perlman knows the ins and outs of filmmaking. In Easy Street (the Hard Way), he shares his inspiring story for the next generation of performers.

Powerful!!

I loved how you schooled us in this book! You took me for a ride gave me a reality check all in one. I really enjoyed this. I will agree with every word of the last two chapters. I do a lot of giving back to the younger generation here in my hometown of Flint. I feel it’s important to give back and teach the arts the root of the arts. Much love and respect brother! I have seen most of your work so I felt as if I was traveling in time with you as you told your story. I even cussed out loud a few times while at work making everyone stop and look at me like I was crazy! I wish you luck and prosperity on your endeavors with the up and coming generations!

"I lov dis f***ing guy!"

READ THIS BOOK. LISTEN TO IT.
Experience this amazing human being in his own passionate voice.
Hugely enjoyable, rough, broad, emotional, poignant, bouyant, loving, romantic, gritty, sweeping and deep thinking, is the author of this tale.
Read the book and be inspired. I bet you'll find it very hard not to become a fan of this hard hitting, uncompromising, clearly in touch with his needs wants, values and morals, beautiful guy.
ignore the curious turns of phase, and curious adjective use. It's part of who he is. He is a New Yorker. Get into it and get over it.
Hear the tale, go see his movies.
Wow...

loved it!

this was a great read! love his honesty and heart. would definitely recommend this to others.

Not What I expected, in a good way!

Ron Perlman is a fantastic actor imho, and as a fan I wanted to hear how he became that way. Ron doesn't disappoint and he shares some really personal stories with the listener. He also manages to share some of his wisdom and the tools he uses in his everyday life to help him get through those bad times.

I highly recommend this book, even if you only know him from SOA, you will be amazed at the journey he took to get here!

Fantastic

Wonderful book

Wonderful book. A must listen to. Love the reader. Good book with lots of thoughtful output

more than I bargained for

I'm starting to get acquainted with Audible Plus books. Since it's included (free) I thought you probably just get what you pay for, but I got much more. Ron Perlman tells a great story, it's inspiring and had me bingeing this book for the most part.

If you don't listen, then your an idiot.

I love you, Ron. You is the Man. I hope more is to come.
