Rethinking the Hollywood Teen Movie is the first academic monograph
to consider the aesthetic and narrative potential of this highly
popular, yet often overlooked, film genre. Reconsidering tropes
such as the male juvenile delinquent figure, the makeover and the
teen vampire, the book uses a series of detailed case studies of
films like Rebel Without a Cause, Grease, Heathers and Twilight to
explore the genre's relation to critical concepts of
intersectionality, postfeminism and the posthuman. This book is an
innovative overview of the Hollywood teen movie and its
construction of teen identity.
