Noël. Lui, c'est John Huston : un aventurier, un grand cinéaste, un géant. Elle, c'est Anjelica. Elle n'a que six ans mais elle sait déjà que cet homme la marquera à jamais. Cinquante ans plus tard, Anjelica Huston est devenue une star. Elle nous livre le récit de sa vie dans ces Mémoires à la fraîcheur romanesque. Après une enfance magique dans le manoir de ses parents et une adolescence en plein coeur du swinging London, Anjelica part pour New York. À 18 ans, elle est mannequin pour Vogue. Mais le cinéma la rattrape, et Stephen Frears, Francis Ford Coppola, Woody Allen, Wes Anderson vont lui offrir des rôles qui la conduiront au sommet d'Hollywood. C'est là qu'elle rencontre Jack Nicholson, avec qui elle va former un couple de légende. Dans Suivez mon regard, Anjelica Huston revient sans détour sur ses amours et sa carrière. Derrière la star, on découvre une femme émouvante, non conformiste, douée d'un vrai sens de l'observation. Illustré de nombreuses photos personnelles, cet autoportrait sensible est une peinture passionnante du nouvel Hollywood... et de ses coulisses. 2015.
