En savoir plus sur le livre

Examining the construction of heterosexual performativity in film, this work traces its evolution from early cinema to contemporary portrayals. The author discusses the commodification of masculine and feminine desires, reinforcing societal norms. Additionally, the book highlights the rise of "hypermasculinity," characterized by exaggerated traits that challenge the gentler male figures seen in films like While You Were Sleeping and Sleepless in Seattle, ultimately questioning the established patriarchal narratives in mainstream cinema.
