  • Roger Ebert and the Terrifying Girl Next Door
    Roger Ebert and the Terrifying Girl Next Door By Richard Leader Adonis hile Roger Ebert has long had a reputation of being a Liberal—in 1996, Michael Medved, an also-ran film critic and conservative pundit, made Ebert the target Wof his own personal crusade out of some sort of revenge for his Mirror approval of Oliver Stone’s Nixon—it took Michael Moore to make that liberalism finally matter to Ebert’s sizeable main- stream audience. In a series of columns about Fahrenheit 9/11, its victory at Cannes, and Moore’s subsequent speech at the Oscars, Ebert made his own views on the Bush presidency abundantly clear to his readers across the political spectrum. Backlash centered not just on those views but his very right to make them as he existed in their minds as a mere film critic, a box that he dare not venture from; an especially ironic position to take if one considers that Medved has done the reverse over the years, opportunistically attaching himself at the hip to demagogues from Rush Limbaugh to Pat Robertson, hoping to finally be taken seriously as a film critic. One of patriarchy’s greatest coups is the compartmentalization of human activity, dividing everything into disparate spheres that cannot be compared or contrasted—preventing a big pic- ture look that might call the system as a whole into question— and Ebert argued valiantly that to be an informed critic, and reader, one must be honest and upfront about one’s own polit- ical views and how they intersect with popular culture in a holistic way.

Some four years ago I wrote a preliminary introduction to my thesis which stated that “The central theme of this dissertation is the comparison of some kind of ‘Hollywood now’ with some kind of ‘Hollywood past’ (or ‘pasts’)”. Today that assertion is merely moderately accurate. While it holds true for certain sections of the book, it seems to me that, for the most part, what I have ended up doing is the theoretical and philosophical groundwork for such a study. There are several reasons for this.

  • 1. the Process of Creating Ever-More Dazzling and Appealing Consumer Settings Is What Ritzer Has Called “Enchanting a Disenchanted World” (Ritzer 2005)
    NOTES CHAPTER 1 1. The process of creating ever-more dazzling and appealing consumer settings is what Ritzer has called “enchanting a disenchanted world” (Ritzer 2005). This process is not limited to everyday items of consumption but extends as well to the world of erotica and pornography. As just one example, early pornographic stag films, which were produced in the first half of the twen- tieth century, were crudely made, grainy, often with barely discernible images. Today’s pornography films, while not necessarily cinematographic works of art, are generally slickly filmed and cleverly marketed; the porn film is increasingly “enchanted.” 2. A few planned shopping centers were created in the decades before World War II, but the first modern shopping mall was created in Edina, Minnesota, in 1956. It was Victor Gruen who conceived of the “intro- verted” mall, which was distinctive because the entrances and windows of the stores faced inward to an enclosed mall rather than outward toward the parking areas (Gladwell 2004). 3. Despite the general acceptance of Victoria’s Secret window displays, occa- sionally their decorators overstep the bounds of acceptance. In 2005, the Victoria’s Secret store in a Northern Virginia shopping mall created some shopper outrage, which led to newspaper and television stories. The win- dow display went “over the top” with female mannequins that were barely dressed and in provocative poses (Dwyer 2005). The ensuing discourse about this display is an early illustration of how those who are offended by sexual displays and materials often add to the attention directed toward them. The next chapter will elaborate on how opponents of sexual mate- rial, erotica, and pornography add to the level of discourse about subjects they oppose.

Barring widely shared concerns regarding the exposure of underage children to material deemed inappropriate, newly rebranded “classification” boards have acted to limit the extent to which they themselves can prohibit images from entering the public market, shifting their emphasis away from censorship and toward consumer edification and greater consideration of artistic merit and authorial intent.
