Animated road trip adventure. Kate (voiced by Hayden Panettiere)
and Humphrey (Justin Long) are two young wolves from a National
Park in Canada who find themselves shipped halfway across the
country by the park's rangers. While Humphrey is a streetwise,
fun-loving Omega wolf, Kate is a sleek and sophisticated Alpha wolf
and considers herself Humphrey's superior. Thrown together in a
foreign land, and faced with a journey of over a thousand miles to
get back home and restore peace on their warring home turf, the two
must overcome their differences and learn to look out for each
other.
The stereotype of the "gold digger" has had a fascinating
trajectory in twentieth-century America, from tales of greedy
flapper-era chorus girls to tabloid coverage of Anna Nicole Smith
and her octogenarian tycoon husband. The term entered American
vernacular in the 1910s as women began to assert greater power over
courtship, marriage, and finances, threatening men's control of
legal and economic structures. Over the course of the century, the
gold digger stereotype reappeared as women pressed for further
control over love, sex, and money while laws failed to keep pace
with such realignments. The gold digger can be seen in silent
films, vaudeville jokes, hip hop lyrics, and reality television.
Whether feared, admired, or desired, the figure of the gold digger
appears almost everywhere gender, sexuality, class, and race
collide. This fascinating interdisciplinary work reveals the
assumptions and disputes around women's sexual agency in American
life, shedding new light on the cultural and legal forces
underpinning romantic, sexual, and marital relationships.
