From the rear cover

Minerva's Night Out showcases noted philosopher and motion picture and media theorist Nol Carroll addressing the philosophical aspects of popular films and pop culture in thought-provoking essays at the intersection of the popular and the profound. Ranging across the philosophy of Halloween to psychoanalysis and the horror film, from Vertigo and the pathologies of romantic love to Andy Kaufman and the philosophies of interpretation, Carroll delivers the insight, wit, and serious engagement for which he's known. At once accessible and intellectually stimulating, Minerva's Night Out plumbs the depths beneath the surface of motion pictures and popular culture.
