Sinopsis

Bizarre Casting Choices explores the often-surprising world of casting decisions in film and television. It examines why actors who seem completely wrong for a role are sometimes chosen, and the impact these choices have on the final product. The book argues that these seemingly odd pairings can add unexpected dimensions to characters, challenging audience expectations.

 
The book delves into instances of intentional miscasting and casting decisions that, on the surface, seem illogical. For example, understanding these choices requires considering factors beyond simple talent, such as star power and directorial vision. It also explores how historical context and shifting cultural norms impact casting decisions, particularly in biographical films.

 
Beginning with a definition of "bizarre" casting, the book progresses through case studies, analyzing factors that contribute to these decisions. It considers the financial aspects of casting, the director's role in challenging conventional choices, and the impact of casting controversies.

 
Ultimately, the book emphasizes the ethics of casting, especially in biographical works, and the filmmaker's responsibility to portray subjects accurately.

    In his first memoir, Ander Monson guides listeners through a scene-by-scene exploration of the 1987 film Predator, which he has watched 146 times. Some fighters might not have time to bleed, but Monson has the patience to consider their adventure, one frame at a time. He turns his obsession into a lens through which he poignantly examines his own life, formed by mainstream, white, male American culture. Between scenes, Monson delves deeply into his adolescence in Michigan's Upper Peninsula and Riyadh, his role as a father and the loss of his own mother, and his friendships with men bound by the troubled camaraderie depicted in action and sci-fi blockbusters. Along with excursions into the conflicted pleasures of cosplay and first-person shooters, he imagines himself beside the poet and memoirist Paul Monette, who wrote the novelization of the movie while his partner was dying of AIDS. 
     
     
     
    A sincere and playful book that lovingly dissects the film, Predator also offers questions and critiques of masculinity, fandom, and their interrelation with acts of mass violence. In a stirring reversal, one chapter exposes Monson through the Predator's heat-seeking vision, asking him, "What do you know about the workings of the hidden world?" As Monson brings us into the brilliant depths of the film and its universe, the hunt begins.
