From Basic Instinct to Faith

The author of screenplay thrillers like Basic Instinct, Showgirls and Jagged Edge is now writing about his faith. Joe Eszterhas latest work is called Crossbearer: A Memoir of Faith. It hits store shelves next week and tells about his conversion to Christ following his diagnoses with throat cancer a few years ago. He now regularly attends Catholic Mass on Sundays with his family. Eszterhas has turned down offers for high pay to write dark scripts for Hollywood because the Hungarian-born writer doesn’t want to go there anymore.
