The Rock Star As Contemporary Cowboy: Film Mythology and Ideology THE ROCK STAR AS CONTEMPORARY COWBOY: FILM MYTHOLOGY AND IDEOLOGY by THOMAS J. BARRY B.S., University of Kansas, 1989 M.A., California State University, Fullerton, 1992 M.S.W., University of Kansas, 1996 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Sociology College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2006 ABSTRACT This study examines the mythology of rock and roll stars in film. To accomplish this the narrative structures and ideological components of films about rock stars were identified and analyzed. There were two reasons for choosing this film genre. First, these films are specifically produced for a youth-oriented audience, an age demographic making the transition to adulthood. Because of this, these films provide commentary about social institutions and cultural values about finding a place in a market-based economy that is not as clearly transparent in other genres. Second, these films deal with society across historical time periods, starting with the inception of rock and roll in the 1950s through the present time. Because they cross multiple decades it is possible to analyze how the narrative structure and content of the films change across time and how these changes reflect changes in social conditions. The narrative structure of these films were identified and analyzed following the methodology laid out by Will Wright in Sixguns and Society (1975). The five narrative structures that were identified included, in chronological order, the reconciliation plot, the personal revival plot, the personal revival plot tragedy variation, the self-destruction plot, and the rejection plot. The journey the heroes in each plot take, along with the obstacles they face and how they find their place in society, coincide with historically situated cultural values and social conditions. Film content was analyzed through assessing how binary oppositions were resolved and the core themes represented. Both components, the narrative structures and binary oppositions, changed in ways reflective of the historical context in which the films were produced and reinforced particular ideological positions about cultural values, the youth, and the marketplace. While the hero's journey took different direction within each of the identified plots, they all contained a common thread – the rock star always finds a place in society by conforming to structural conditions instead of working to alter them.

I extend a special note of appreciation to my major advisor and Dissertation Chair, Dr. Pat Akard. Thank you for your patience, insights, and engagement in the research. For offering valuable feedback at different stages in the research and for encouraging future projects related to it, I want to thank the committee members: Robert Schaeffer, Gerald Middendorf, and Tim Dayton. Your ideas about the project and possibilities for it down the road were much appreciated. While not a member of the committee, I appreciate the time Frank Weyer's put into drafting an informative critique. Your comments provided valuable assistance in framing the initial chapters. Assisting in identifying both the merits of this study as well as how it could be approached was the late Dr. Len Bloomquist. I am indebted to the support and leadership he provided during the initial stages of the research. Thank you for your guidance. viii DEDICATION Completing this research required countless hours away from family. And even when together, I was often consumed by thoughts of the rock star in film. Always there for encouragement were my wife, Seana, and my two children, Zack and Matthew. Thanks

  • Selena Y Los Dinos
    Case Study CX005.1 Last revised: February 24, 2014 Selena y los Dinos Justin Ward Selena Quintanilla-Perez was born in Texas on April 16, 1971 into an English-speaking Latino family of Jehovah’s Witnesses.1 Her father, Abraham Quintanilla, Jr. (“Quintanilla”) was an enterprising man who had spent his youth trying to make it in the Texas music scene as manager and member of a band called Los Dinos. Quintanilla took a job at a chemical plant when he settled down, but later left to open his own restaurant. During his (ultimately unsuccessful) effort to keep the struggling business afloat, he had the musically talented nine- year-old Selena perform live music to help attract customers. Although the restaurant failed, Selena continued to perform under the name Selena y los Dinos. She learned to sing in Spanish and began recording with local producers. After the eighth grade, she dropped out of school to pursue her musical career. The band remained in many ways a family affair: Quintanilla (once described as “the ultimate stage father”2) managed the group, her brother A.B. played bass guitar and wrote many of Selena’s songs, and she married the band’s guitarist, Chris Perez. By 1993, Selena was an award-winning Tejano singer and a rising star, having signed a record deal with Capitol/EMI (which had asked Selena to release albums as “Selena,” not “Selena y los Dinos”). She would go on to further musical success and to open a chain of boutique stores called Selena Etc. On February 7, 1993, Selena y los Dinos gave a free concert at Corpus Christi Memorial Coliseum.
