In 1936, director John Ford claimed to be making movies for 'a new
kind of public' that wanted more honest pictures. Cassano argues
that this new kind of public was forged in the fires of class
struggle and economic calamity. Those struggles appeared in
Hollywood productions, as the movies themselves tried to explain
the causes and consequence of the Great Depression. Using the tools
of critical Marxism and cultural theory, Cassano surveys
Hollywood's political economic explanations and finds a field of
symbolic struggle between the classes.
