We Did Ok, Kid

Born and raised in a small Welsh steelworks town amid war and depression, Sir Anthony Hopkins grew up around men who eschewed all forms of emotional vulnerability in favor of alcoholism and brutality. A struggling student in school, he was deemed a failure with no future ahead of him. But, on a fateful Saturday night, the disregarded Welsh boy watched the 1948 adaptation of Hamlet, sparking a passion for acting that would lead him on a path that no one could have predicted. We Did OK, Kid is a raw and passionate memoir from a complex, iconic man who has inspired audiences with remarkable performances for over sixty years.
