Los Angeles, espace augmenté révélé par un genre littéraire : l’anthologie by Charles JOSEPH

“…Often perceived as an anti-intellectual space, Los Angeles is a city that was built on the indelible association that unites it to the Hollywood industry and which produced exponentially - even more so from WWII - an idealized imagery of its territory leading to a collective imaginary that governs many expectations as well as the irresistible diktat of what the “American Way of Life” is supposed to be or look like. …”

Feminismo, fundamentalismo islámico y la política de la contrainsurgencia by Saba Mahmood, Charles Hirschkind

“…Algunas estrellas de Hollywood y la organización Mayoría Feminista (Feminist Majority) hicieron una campaña para “terminar con la discriminación de género en Afganistán”, pero pasaron por alto el papel que Estados unidos había jugado en la promoción de grupos extremistas islámicos en la región, equipándolos con armas, y creando un ambiente político en el cual la emergencia de los Talibán era un resultado predecible. …”

The Haunted World of El Superbeasto (Rob Zombie, 2009): An Animated Exploitation of Exploitation Cinema by Pierre Floquet

“…Yet the question remains as to whether the movie also means to play a controversial political role in showing what Hollywood films (both direct and animated) have repressed—the unseen of culture—or whether it is merely a distanced animated one-off in the directing career of a multi-skilled artist. …”

The South between Two Frontiers: Confederate Cowboys and Savage Rednecks by Hervé Mayer

“…If The Birth of a Nation was the first and last film in which Blacks were pictured as predatory beasts in Hollywood, this internal frontier reappears with the cultural crisis of the 1960s, when the South became home to savages of a new kind, degenerate rednecks, who embody the failure of the national myth in the Western, serving as scapegoats for an American savagery revealed by the My Lai massacre and the Manson murders. …”

La ficción de la inclusión cultural en el cine Hollywoodense: Babel y la reproducción de estereotipos culturales by Yunuen Ysela Mandujano-Salazar, Andrés Ramírez-Sánchez

“…Este críticamente aclamado filme, estrenado en 2006, fue dirigido y escrito por dos mexicanos, pero producido y distribuido hacia el mundo desde Hollywood. Se tiene por objetivo extraer las imágenes y características predominantes en la representación de las sociedades mexicana, estadounidense, japonesa y marroquí́, así como de sus ciudadanos, y problematizar si en esas representaciones y en los discursos que se construyen a través del argumento del filme se refuerzan o desafían estereotipos culturales y étnicos vigentes en Estados Unidos con respecto a las sociedades involucradas, sirviendo de alguna manera a los intereses políticos dominantes.…”

Phyllis, Cora, Laura, Gilda… Kobieta jako przedmiot w „film noir” by Patrycja Włodek

“…Analiza czterech filmów (Podwójne ubezpieczenie, Listonosz zawsze dzwoni dwa razy, Gilda, Laura), w których ekranowa obecność bohaterek określona jest nie tylko przez ich rolę w narracji i silnie nacechowaną erotycznie stronę wizualną, ale też przez konkretne i znaczące przedmioty (bransoletka, szminka, rękawiczka), wskazuje jednak na pewne strategie stosowane w Hollywood. Strategie te wynikały m.in. z momentu dziejowego i kodeksu Haysa, a ich celem było umieszczenie silnej i niezależnej femme fatale w ramach społecznych, którym tak bardzo sprzeciwia się ona w toku akcji. …”

Greta Garbo and the Stock Cube: Film-themed Sweepstakes with Commercial Purposes in the Years of Fascism by Mariapia Comand

“…From this starting point, it examines the relationships between the media industry, the broader industrial sector, the bureaucratic apparatus, political power, and legislative authority, when the international dominance of Hollywood overshadowed the Italian market. The article considers ephemera as a complex discursive system in which the relationships and tensions between different and sometimes competing subjects and interests can be revealed. …”

While the original version may have highlighted the horror and dehumanization of the Vietnam War, it was also criticized for depicting women as one-dimensional sexual objects and effectively silencing their voices. …”

Embodied performances of (post-)indenture: Creolization of Indian dance, music and nadrons in Guadeloupe by Sandrine Soukaï

“…Combining an analysis of literary texts on the one hand, and cultural activists’ projects and experiences on the other, I tease out the paradoxes at the heart of Indian song and dance performances, demonstrating how they oscillate between a return to an ancestral Hindu India, a recognition of the creolization at work in French Caribbean Indianness and, more recently, an opening to the global Indian culture popularized by Bollywood.…”
