Screening the Dark Side of Love: From Euro-Horror to American Cinema

By Karen A. Ritzenhoff

Book Overview

How can love be understood globally as a problematic transgression rather than the narrative of "happy endings" that Hollywood has offered? The contributors utilize varying methodologies of textual analysis, psychoanalytic models, and cultural critique and engage with a broad range of films to explore issues of gender identity and spectatorship.
