Kord and Krimmer investigate the most common male types - cops,
killers, fathers, cowboys, superheroes, spies, soldiers, rogues,
lovers, and losers - by tracing changing concepts of masculinity in
popular Hollywood blockbusters from 1992 to 2008 - the Clinton and
Bush eras - against a backdrop of contemporary political events,
social developments, and popular American myths. Their in-depth
analysis of over sixty films, from The Matrix and Iron Man to
Pirates of the Caribbean and The Lord of the Rings, shows that
movies, far from being mere entertainment, respond directly to
today's social and political realities, from consumerism to "family
values" to the War on Terror.
