Tom Sizemoreโs successful film career was often marred by issues in his personal life that included addiction, domestic violence and incarceration.
In 2017, Sizemore wrote a memoir, By Some Miracle, I Made it Out of There, in which he shared stories of his troubled life. He shared a story living in his car for two years and asking fellow actor Jack Nicholson for $10 million when his drug addiction was at its worst.
