One of the cleverest, most accessibly indepth film books released this year . . . a smartass novelist exploring a cheesycheeky 80s scifi flick.Hartford AdvocateDeep Focus is a series of film books with a fresh approach. Take the smartest, liveliest writers in contemporary letters and let them loose on the most vital and popular corners of cinema history: midnight movies, the New Hollywood of the sixties and seventies, film noir, screwball comedies, international cult classics, and more . . . Kicking off the series is Jonathan Lethems take on They Live, John Carpenters 1988 classic amalgam of deliberate Bmovie, scifi, horror, antiYuppie agitprop.Lethem exfoliates Carpenters paranoid satire in a series of penetrating, freeassociational forays into the context of a story that peels the human masks off the ghoulish overlords of capitalism. Taking into consideration classic Hollywood cinema and science fictionas well as popular music and contemporary art and theoryThey Live provides a wholly original perspective on Carpenters subversive classic.
