00:00 When folks hear Stephen King most of the time,
00:03 especially those who aren't like super accustomed or knowledgeable of his work,
00:06 they think, "Oh, the horror guy," which is not true.
00:11 Stephen King writes human beings and then he puts them in incredibly pressured,
00:19 difficult, sometimes phantasmagorical situations.
00:23 You're dealing with characters who are just so interesting and so fascinating.
00:26 Like he really knows how to explore it through characters that you give a s*** about.
00:32 Much of Stephen King's work seems to be about how we treat each other.
