While analysts may agree that Hollywood movies have always both mirrored and helped to shape the tenor of their times, the question remains: Just how do they do it? And how do we identify the political/ideological content of any film? This volume explores how Hollywood movies have functioned to propagate, or to debate, or sometimes to contest the evolving US national security state since 1945.
