Overview
- Fox writes that Eric Stoltz declined to be interviewed for the memoir but met him in fall 2024 in New York for a first-ever conversation.
- He says parts of their discussion remain private at Stoltz’s request, and the two now keep up a friendly email exchange about family and films.
- The book recounts that Stoltz was replaced about six weeks into production after dailies showed a tonal mismatch for Marty McFly.
- Fox describes on‑set friction with Crispin Glover, including a crew‑built corral of sandbags and C‑stands to keep Glover on his mark.
- He revisits the day‑night schedule that let him film Family Ties and Back to the Future simultaneously, and notes his foundation has raised over $2 billion for research.
