In \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eI Love The Bones Of You\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, Eccleston unveils a vivid portrait of a relationship that has shaped his entire career trajectory, mirroring and defining his own highs and lows, from stage and screen triumph to breakdown, \u003cb\u003eanorexia\u003c\/b\u003e, self-doubt, and a deep belief in the basic principles of access and equality denied to generations. The actor reveals how his background in \u003cb\u003eSalford\u003c\/b\u003e, and vision of a person, like millions, denied their true potential, shaped his desire to make drama forever entwined with the marginalised, the oppressed, and the outsider.\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n Movingly, and in scenes sadly familiar to increasing numbers, Eccleston also describes how the tightening grip of \u003cb\u003edementia\u003c\/b\u003e on his father slowly blinded him to his son’s existence, forcing a new and final chapter in their connection, and how ‘Ronnie Ecc’ still walks alongside him today.

A love letter to one man, and a paean to many.\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n ‘My father was an “ordinary man”, which of course means he was extraordinary. I aim to capture him and his impact on my life and career.’  - \u003cb\u003eChristopher Eccleston\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42535451000990,"sku":"HPC-9781471176340","price":27.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/products\/9781471176340.jpg?v=1680930415","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781471176340","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
