  • The Representation of Celtic Tiger Irish Masculinity in Hollywood Cinema: 1994-2008
    The Representation of Celtic Tiger Irish Masculinity in Hollywood Cinema: 1994-2008 Elizabeth Carville A major thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the subject of English, Maynooth University, Department of English. August 2018 Head of Department: Prof. Colin Graham Research Supervisors: Prof. Luke Gibbons and Dr Denis Condon. Contents Introduction 1 Chapter One “Tiger Celts”: Irishness, Whiteness, and Masculinity 33 Chapter Two “Gael Gore”: Hollywood Representations of Irish Violence 86 Chapter Three Fathers, Sons, and Irish Masculinity 144 Chapter Four Sexuality and the City: The Irish Metrosexual 204 Conclusion 271 Bibliography 281 Filmography 304 SUMMARY By analysing the careers of three Irish actors in the U.S. during the Celtic Tiger period— Colin Farrell, Cillian Murphy, and Jonathan Rhys Meyers—this thesis explores the representation of Celtic Tiger Irish masculinity in Hollywood cinema. It considers the “Celtic Tiger” as an economic phenomenon that had cultural ramifications and affected the meanings attached to Irishness at a local and global level. Each chapter takes a trope or stereotype connected to the representation of Irish masculinity in cinema. Chapter One, “Tiger Celts”: Irishness, Whiteness, and Masculinity, considers the way that Irishness registers as a form of enriched whiteness in popular culture while still laying claim to a victim status that has extended from Ireland’s former colonization. It argues that as both film stars and characters, Farrell, Murphy, and Meyers avail of the cultural currency of whiteness, but remain inseparable from their ethnicity. They are seldom cast as actors but as Irish actors in Hollywood, and the contention that the Irishness of Farrell, Murphy, and Meyers lingers as a watermark that remains present regardless of the accent or ethnicity of the characters they play underlies the arguments made throughout the thesis as a whole.
