All Has Changed, Thanks To Joe Eszterhas' Life-threatening Battle With Throat Cancer. He Announced In "the New York Times" That He And Hollywood Had Blood On Their Hands And Now Eszterhas Is Crusading To Stop Hollywood's Glamorization Of Smoking.

I Have Only One Loyalty - To My Writing. I Never Wanted To Be The Head Of A Studio Or A Producer.

I've Seen Joe Take On Many Battles, Cancer Being One Of Them, And The Determination That He Has, And He Won't Stop, He's Not Going To Make One Announcement And Write One Editorial And Go Away.
