Movies (and Other Things): A Collection of Questions Asked, Answered, Illustrated, written by Shea Serrano and illustrated by Arturo Torres, was published in October 2019.[1] [2] It became the duo's third consecutive number-one bestseller on The New York Times Best Seller list.[3] [4]
Movies (and Other Things) is Shea Serrano and Arturo Torres's third book together. It was published by Twelve, an imprint of Grand Central at Hachette.
The 256-page book has 30 chapters on different movies. Each is illustrated by Torres and each poses a question to be answered in the essay.
Actor John Leguizamo contributed a preface and Don Cheadle wrote an afterword.[5]
In the Los Angeles Times, Jen Yamato wrote, "Each essay turns the pop culture whiz's voracious appetite for movies of the last several decades into jumping-off points for wider cultural conversations and curiosities."[6] In Esquire, Jack Holmes called it "a charming examination of industry tropes and his personal hobby-horses across all the movies he's watched—sometimes many times—since the '80s."[7]
