This book examines the reverberations of key components of Ronald
Reagan's ideology in selected Hollywood blockbuster movies. The aim
of this analysis is to provide a clearer understanding of the
intertwinement of cinematic spectacles with neoliberalism and
neoconservatism. The analysis comprises a dissection of Reagan's
presidential rhetoric and the examination of four seminal Hollywood
blockbuster movies. The time range for analysis stretches from the
1980s until the 2010s. Among the key foci are filmic content as
well as production and distribution contexts. It is concluded that
Reagan's political metaphors and the corporatization of film
studios in the 1970s and 1980s continue to shape much of Hollywood
blockbuster filmmaking.
