BY LORRAINE DUFFY MERKL “In a range of films from Golden Boy to The Bridge on the River Kwai and Sabrina, from Sunset Boulevard to Stalag 17 and The Wild Bunch, William Holden could do it all.” So, says Alec Baldwin in his new book, Nevertheless: A Memoir, out now and published by Harper, an imprint of HarperCollins. I think he could actually be talking about himself. Alec started working in 1980 on a soap called The Doctors, but as a General Hospital fan, I did not become aware of him until the mid 80s, when he appeared as “Joshua Rush,” the manipulative TV evangelist on Knots Landing; and quite frankly, he (or should I say the character) didn’t do it for me.
