Like Being on Mars - An Oral History of Carrie (1976) (hardback)

About Like Being on Mars - An Oral History of Carrie (1976) (hardback)

Featuring exclusive interviews with director Brian DePalma, stars Sissy Spacek, Piper Laurie, Nancy Allen, Amy Irving, William Katt, P.J. Soles and more; writers Stephen King and Lawrence D. Cohen and a host of others including the late Bill Paxton who worked on the film alongside art director Jack Fisk (who also features), Like Being On Mars is a lovingly curated oral history of the horror classic Carrie (1976). Loaded with powerful insight and images that truly deliver an in depth and inside look at the creative process and the final execution of one of the most monumental seventies landmark films, this making-of account is a very honest and also often sentimental journey into the world of DePalma's adaptation of King's novel which is powered by formidable and vitally important performances from women such as Spacek and Laurie (both of whom received Oscar nominations for their roles). A must have for dedicated cinephiles and horror movie enthusiasts alike.
