by Garry Jenkins (Author)
Drawing on interviews with Day-Lewis's family, friends and colleagues, this biography portrays a life from troubled boyhood to matinee idol manhood. It reveals how his past has returned to trouble him, a complex and enigmatic person akin to his myriad of screenroles. He is the chameleon creator of the crippled genius Christy Brown in My Left Foot , the dashing frontiersman Hawkeye in Last of the Mohicans , and the falsely imprisoned Gerry Conlon in In the Name of the Father .
