As Deep as It Gets: Movies and Metaphysics is a witty and light-hearted introduction to philosophy through a deep study of some well-known movies and TV shows: Pulp Fiction, South Park, The Princess Bride, The Wizard of Oz, Super 8, The Twilight Zone, House of Cards, Inception, Monty Pythons Life of Brian, His Dark Materials, Sergio Leones westerns, and Alfred Hitchcock''s Lifeboat.
All the major branches of philosophy are covered, including aesthetics, political philosophy, metaphysics, and the theory of knowledge. The authors approach is Continental, with some American idealism and process philosophy in support. The emphasis is on the primacy of time as a key to interpreting human experience. In that regard, existentialism, phenomenology, and process philosophy are better guides to thinking about time than the more popular approaches that depend on language analysis.
Professor Randall E. Auxier says: Philosophizing involves telling stories about life that are art, and making up stories that arent life but provide a contrast to it. I want readers to add to what I see, and to take up interpretations contrary to mine. A healthy discussion is good for everybody.
