{"product_id":"order-in-the-universe","title":"Order in the Universe","description":"An obscure independent filmmaker until \u003ci\u003eHalloween\u003c\/i\u003e (1978), John Carpenter has been applauded for his classic sense of compositions, yet reviled for his \"B-film\" sensibility. This second edition of the first book-length analysis finds in Carpenter's films a vision of a profound but unexpected order in the universe. The author analyzes Carpenter's early independent work, his made-for-television movies, his big Hollywood films (\u003ci\u003eThe Fog, Escape from New York, The Thing, Stephen King's Christine, Starman\u003c\/i\u003e), his more recent independent work (\u003ci\u003eBig Trouble in Little China, Prince of Darkness, They Live\u003c\/i\u003e), and his contributions to films he did not direct. This edition fully updates the 1990 edition with attention to the films made since that date. With a chronology of Carpenter's career, a detailed filmography, photos, brief plot synopses, and a thorough index, this volume will be treasured by film scholars and fans alike.","brand":"Scarecrow Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54256110600536,"sku":"9780810837195","price":72.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780810837195.jpg?v=1769697943","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/order-in-the-universe","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
