- Description
- This book explores the construction and representation of masculinity in low-budget western movies made from the 1930s to the early 1950s. These films contained some of the mid-twentieth-century’s most familiar names, especially for youngsters: cowboys such as Roy Rogers, Hopalong Cassidy, and Red Ryder. The book combines the author’s childhood fascination with this genre with an interdisciplinary scholarly exploration of the films influence on modern views of masculinity. McGillis argues that the masculinity offered by these films is less one-dimensional than it is plural, perhaps contrary to expectations. Their deeply conservative values are edged with transgressive desire, and they construct a male figure who does not fit into binary categories, such as insider/outsider or masculine/feminine. Particularly relevant is the author’s discussion of George W. Bush as a cowboy and how his aspirations to cowboy ideals continue to shape American policy.

- Description
- This book examines the intersections between debates in critical studies of men and masculinities and debates on visual representation, investigating representations of men and masculinities in contemporary culture and examples of visual art that deconstruct those representations. It attends to various spaces associated with heteronormativity, including the visible domains of working life, leisure and public discourses, as well as less visible domains such as private spaces, lifestyle, desire and sexual agency.

- Description
- By analyzing the negotiation of femininities and masculinities within contemporary Hollywood cinema and by focusing on the largely neglected intersections between postfeminism and queer theory this volume presents diverse interrogations of popular cinema. The chapters in this collection position contemporary commercial production as a space where female empowerment is both celebrated and undermined, and signal the necessity of further debate surrounding the formation of gender identity in postmillennial Hollywood cinema.

- Description
- Gillett invokes feminist and psychoanalytic theories in her analysis of Campion's films. She states that Campion revises Laura Mulvey's notion of the male gaze, by subjecting male sexuality to female scrutiny and by attempting to invent the conditions of mutual seeing. For example, Gillett's discussion of In the Cut employs the myths of Medusa and Bluebeard and also Barbara Creed's conception of the monstrous feminine in its discussion of castration. She argues that whereas Malloy is unafraid of female desire, Rodriguez castrates (decapitates) women out of fear of being castrated himself. Although this film scrutinizes male sexuality, Gillett claims that it also provides a different story of female sexual desire.

- Description
- Gender roles have been tested, challenged, and redefined everywhere during the past thirty years, but perhaps nowhere more dramatically than in film. This book is an introduction to the representations of masculinity, femininity, and places once thought to be 'in between.' The book begins with a general introduction that traces the movement of gender theory from the margins of film studies to its center. The ten essays that follow address a range of topics, including screen stars: depictions of gay, straight, queer, and transgender subjects: and the relationship between gender and genre.
