"X-Files Confidential." It's completely unauthorized. Totally candid. And the only book to cover every episode of the first four seasons. Veteran television journalist Ted Edwards has talked to all of the players - Chris Carter, David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson, and the rest of the cast and crew. He's uncovered the in-jokes and the inside stories, the creative tensions and the real-life inspirations, the secret obsessions and the happy accidents. You'll discover which episode was so scary that Anderson still has nightmares about it; how Cigarette-Smoking Man's role inadvertently expanded from a mysterious background part to a crucial one; how a real-life contortionist managed to perform feats that the producers thought would have to be accomplished using special effects; which episode was inspired by cutting-edge robotics and artificial intelligence; what director Rob Bowman has to say in his first interview about the upcoming X-Files movie and much more. "X-Files Confidential." It's a complete episode-by-episode guide. An A-to-Z encyclopedia. And an unprecedented behind-the-scenes look at the world's most provocative television series.
