{"product_id":"9781593939229","title":"Growing Up with Manos: The Hands of Fate","description":"For Jackey Neyman Jones, who played Debbie in Manos: The Hands of Fate, the \"worst movie ever made\" is, at its heart, a home movie that just happens to be shared with the world. Equal parts memoir\/family saga\/film book, Growing Up with Manos: The Hands of Fate shares the behind-the-scenes story of the making of Manos: from creator Hal Warren's alleged bet with TV producer Stirling Silliphant that \"anyone could make a movie,\" to the tragic suicide of John Reynolds (Torgo), right up through the newest Manos-related projects that are carrying the film into the digital age. Jackey's stories dispel much of the Manos mythology while crystallizing a unique time and place in America, where a crew of actors with a bad script and a rented camera set out to make a bad movie-and succeeded beyond their wildest dreams.\u003cp\u003eJackey Neyman Jones is a professional artist living in the Great Northwest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLaura Mazzuca Toops is a writer\/editor with more than 30 years' experience in business and fiction writing.
