Big Bad Wolves: Masculinity In The American Film presents a rigorous academic examination of the evolving portrayal of masculinity throughout American cinematic history. This critical study uncovers the complex ways in which male archetypes, from stoic heroes to troubled anti-heroes, have been constructed and deconstructed on screen. It argues that these cinematic representations both reflect and shape societal perceptions of gender roles and power dynamics. The book illustrates how various film genres contribute to a broader understanding of male identity, offering a compelling analysis for scholars and enthusiasts of film and cultural studies alike.
