Us: The Complete Annotated Screenplay by Jordan Peele Paperback Book

Description: Us by Jordan Peele, hannah baer, Jamieson Webster, Jared Sexton, Theaster Gates, Mary Ping, Shana Redmond, Leila Taylor "A colossal cinematic achievement" —Richard Brody, the New YorkerA masterpiece of identity horror and a dark reflection on Americas past and present, Us presents chilly atmospherics, psychological torment and old-world suspense-building plot twists. Whereas Get Out was considered more a mixture of drama and suspense, Peele leaned fully into the horror genre with his sophomore film, using urban legends such as doppelgangers to tease out the uniquely American perceptions of xenophobia and "othering." Critic Monica Castillo wrote of the film: "Us is another thrilling exploration of the past and oppression this country is still too afraid to bring up. Peele wants us to talk, and hes given audiences the material to think, to feel our way through some of the darker sides of the human condition."Published in conjunction with the fifth anniversary of the critically acclaimed films release, this companion paperback features Oscar®-winning director Jordan Peeles screenplay, alternate endings and deleted scenes, and is richly illustrated with over 150 stills from the motion picture. Specially commissioned annotations by hannah baer, Theaster Gates, Jamieson Webster, Jared Sexton, Mary Ping, Shana Redmond and Leila Taylor present a cosmology of images, definitions and inspirations that extend the themes of the film. Continuing in the legacy of 1960s paperbacks that documented the eras most significant avant-garde films—such as Kurosawas Rashomon, Godards Masculin Féminin and Antonionis LAvventura—Us is an indispensable guide to a deeper understanding of this important film.Jordan Peele (born 1979) is a writer, actor and filmmaker who rose to fame as half of the comedy duo Key & Peele.
