Introduction by Stephen King

Afterword by Tobe Hooper

A LIFE IN THE CINEMA is the first book from award-winning filmmaker Mick Garris. It is a collection of eight prickly tales and a screenplay that reach under the skin of real life and reel life to take you places you never realized you wanted to go.

The title story, A Life in the Cinema and its sequel, Starfu**er, are set in the author's hometown of Hollywood, and provide a yellow-jaundiced look at a world you only thought was glamorous.

Not all of the stories are Hollywood-based: Garris includes tales of a grandmother who is just as loving in death as she was in life, a geriatric trailer park with a randy secret, wistful and impossible love with a twist, the wrong kind of baby-love, and a deathly brush with fame. The book is capped with a screenplay by Garris, as well as Chocolate, the story it's based on.
