- Summary:
- "Like no other book before it, this work delves into the deep, dark and mysterious undertones hidden in Tinseltown's biggest films. Esoteric Hollywood is a game-changer in an arena of tabloid-populated titles. After years of scholarly research, Jay Dyer has compiled his most read essays, combining philosophy, comparative religion, symbolism and geopolitics and their connections to film. Readers will watch movies with new eyes, able to decipher on their own, as the secret meanings of cinema are unveiled."--Page [4] of cover.
