Bryan Cranston

By: Robin Morgan-Bentley
Narrated by: Bryan Cranston

Summary

Introducing his autobiography, A Life in Parts, Bryan Cranston talks to us about embodying the infamous drug kingpin Walter White, the physical and emotional turmoil that comes with being an actor and how a difficult and oftentimes violent upbringing led him to become an unrelenting optimist.

Having first graced our screens at the age of seven, Bryan now has over 150 titles to his name, including Linwood Boomer’s hugely celebrated sitcom Malcom in the Middle and Vince Gilligan’s multiaward-winning Breaking Bad.

A fan of short stories, Brian presents A Life in Parts through a series of brief chapters which take the listener through a chronological journey of his life. Also an excellent guide for prospective actors, Brian imparts advice to those who are looking to make their mark in Hollywood.

Not the best interviewer

Not the best interviewer. Audible requires the additional words as a somewhat silly purile policy.

Great voice

Interesting self revelations from a great but winningly modest actor. Certainly makes me want to hear the autobiography.

Nec sane haec sola pernicies orientem diversis cladibus adfligebat. Namque et Isauri, quibus est usitatum saepe pacari saepeque inopinis excursibus cuncta miscere, ex latrociniis occultis et raris, alente inpunitate adulescentem in peius audaciam ad bella gravia proruperunt, diu quidem perduelles spiritus inrequietis motibus erigentes, hac tamen indignitate perciti vehementer, ut iactitabant, quod eorum capiti quidam consortes apud Iconium Pisidiae oppidum in amphitheatrali spectaculo feris praedatricibus obiecti sunt praeter morem.

Is it time to watch Breaking Bad?

I had downloaded quite a few of these audible interviews ( I’ll be honest it was in an attempt to qualify for badges 😂) decided to listen to some and I am pleasantly surprised. I’d never watched any Breaking Bad however I’m now considering it. Bryan’s interview was interesting and relaxed. I’ve even added his book onto my wish list

insightful, human, honest

Cranston always strikes me as honest and very candid about his own work and life. This short introduction to his memoir makes the reader eager to pick up the book - or to get the audiobook.
