Masculine Jealousy and Contemporary Cinema cover

This study provides new insights into the link between masculinity and jealousy through a study of representations of male jealousy in modern Hollywood cinema. It argues, through examples of films and their reception in the press, that male jealousy has played a key role in the psychocultural shaping of Western masculinities and male fantasy.
       

This is an exciting and innovative study which adds a new dimension to psychoanalytic approaches to film and to masculinity, and which sheds new light on films such as Taxi Driver , The Piano and The End of The Affair . - Steve Neale, University of Exeter
