Strange Is Normal - The Amazing Life of Colin Wilson (DVD)

A portrait of the prolific English philosopher and novelist. Wilson rose to fame after the publication of his 1956 work 'The Outsider', which examined the role of the social 'outsider' among various key literary and cultural figures. In addition to various philosophical works, Wilson went on to write books on metaphysical and occult themes, as well as crime fiction and science fiction. Courted by the rich and famous, this film folllows the author at home as he reflects on both his work and a life spent among friends including Sir Laurence Olivier and Marilyn Monroe.
