Viac o knihe
Analyzing the emergence of films about the Iraq conflict, the book delves into why such works have been labeled a "toxic genre" by critics. It explores the use of soldiers' YouTube self-representation styles to create an "authentic" experience and the tendency of these films to focus on "apolitical" post-traumatic stress disorder. Additionally, it addresses broader film theory issues, including the nature of film failures, production influences, and the significance of genre labels. This study is essential for film studies students and cinema enthusiasts interested in modern warfare portrayals.
