"Breaks new ground by raising questions about the portrayal of masculinity on the screen...Essential." --Choice "A thoroughly winning piece of literature: an invaluable companion piece to the films of postclassical Hollywood and their varied depictions of the working and professional-managerial classes. Brisk, frequently witty, and not too steeped in academese to ward off the nonprofessional cinephile, Nystrom's book demands a spot on your bookshelf somewhere between Biskind'sEasy Riders, Raging Bullsand that well-thumbed copy of Lukacs'sHistory and Class Consciousness." --Cineaste "It has long been a source of amazement that, even as class warfare plays out so brazenly in U.S. domestic and international politics, media studies pays so little attention to class structure and to class-specific ideologies in corporate industrial culture. Derek Nystrom interrupts this repression by reading the representation of the working class in seventies' cinema as the imaginary resolution of crises within the professional-managerial class; in doing so, he has made an enormously lucid, nuanced-and courageous-contribution to film and indeed cultural studies generally."-David E.

Synopsis
Everywhere you look in 1970s American cinema, you find white working-class men. They bring a violent conclusion to Easy Rider, murdering the film's representatives of countercultural alienation and disaffection. They lurk in the Georgia woods of Deliverance, attacking outsiders in a manner that evokes the South's recent history of racial violence and upheaval. They haunt the singles nightclubs of Looking for Mr. Goodbar, threatening the film's newly liberated heroine with patriarchal violence. They strut through the disco clubs of Saturday Night Fever, dancing to music whose roots in post-Stonewall homosexuality invite ambiguity that the men ignore. Hard Hats, Rednecks, and Macho Men argues that the persistent appearance of working-class characters in these and other films of the 1970s reveals the powerful role class played in the key social and political developments of the decade, such as the decline of the New Left and counterculture, the re-emergence of the South as the Sunbelt, and the rise of the women's and gay liberation movements. Examining the "youth cult" film, the neo-Western "southern," and the "new nightlife" film, Nystrom shows how these cinematic renderings of white working-class masculinity actually tell us more about the crises facing the middle class during the 1970s than about working-class experience itself. Hard Hats thus demonstrates how these representations of the working class serve as fantasies about a class Other-fantasies that offer imaginary resolutions to middle-class anxieties provoked by the decade's upheavals. Drawing on examples of iconic films from the era-Saturday Night Fever, Cruising, Five Easy Pieces, and Walking Tall, among others-Nystrom presents an incisive, evocative study of class and American cinema during one of the nation's most tumultuous decades., Everywhere you look in 1970s American cinema, you find white working-class men.

Drawing on iconic films from the era -- Saturday Night Fever, Looking for Mr. Goodbar, Walking Tall, and Five Easy Pieces, among others -- Nystrom presents an incisive, evocative study of labor, class, and American cinema in the wake of Vietnam, women's and gay liberation, the rise of the New Right, and other events that defined the decade.

I was five years old when World War II ended. Because of the terrible price our nation and others had to pay in that war, I became very interested in it. However, no one would tell me anything about it I didn’t understand it until I was older.
and especially D Day. only soldiers who have made the sacrifice of that most repugnant of things, taking the lives of people, can really understand, it’s horror. Those are the real heroes. Trying to understand. May God bless them all on both sides.

I ordered a brand new hardcover but the shipping packaging was so flimsy and ineffective that the book arrived with a large dent and damage in multiple spots to the cover jacket. It's lucky nothing was torn but I wouldn't recommend this seller for hardcover books.

Excellent value and fast shipping!!! The item was perfect and as described. Thank you!!
It may cost more, but I would gladly pay extra for sturdier packaging. Perhaps as an option. However, the paperback arrived in pristine condition. Highly recommend this seller!!!
