    TITOLO Domino REGIA Tony Scott INTERPRETI Keira Knightley, Mickey Rourke, Edgar Ramirez, Mena Suvari, Macy Gray, Jacqueline Bisset, Dabney Coleman, Lucy Liu, Christopher Walken GENERE Biografico DURATA 127 min. – Colore PRODUZIONE USA – Francia – 2005 Domino è cresciuta in un ambiente privilegiato, tra lusso ed eleganza, ma non è mai stata interessata al patinato mondo del jet set. Solo quando entra a far parte di una stravagante banda di cacciatori di taglie, un gruppo composto da individui poco raccomandabili che danno la caccia ai malviventi, Domino riesce a sentirsi veramente realizzata. In poco tempo lei e i suoi compari - Ed Mosbey, un ex detenuto, Choco, un latino americano molto sensuale, Alf, un afgano esperto di bombe -diventano il più esperto e famoso gruppo di cacciatori di criminali di Los Angeles, tanto da richiamare l'interesse dei media. Il produttore televisivo Mark Heiss, infatti, li mette sotto contratto per diventare le star di un nuovo reality show, "The Bounty Squad". Tuttavia, quello che i quattro non sospettano è che sarà la missione più difficile della loro carriera. “Quello fu un momento cruciale, decisi di non investire più troppi sentimenti in una cosa sola, finsice sempre col dolore per averla persa” Domino Harvey, prematuramente scomparsa all'età di 35 anni nella sua casa di Los Angeles, il 27 Giugno del 2005, in seguito ad un infarto provocato da un eccesso di farmaci, è nota per essere stata una cacciatrice di taglie.

I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. iii Abstract Humans share the planet with many wonderfully diverse animal species and human- animal interactions are part of our daily lives. An important part of understanding how humans do and should interact with other animals is understanding how humans think about other animals. In this thesis, I argue that how humans think about the minds of other animals is marked by prejudice and that this prejudice fosters epistemological, metaphysical, and ethical problems related to study of, the conception of, and the conclusions we draw about animal minds.
