    ADAM SANDLER: MENTOR OF MIDDLE-CLASS MASCULINITY AND MANHOOD A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of California State University, Stanislaus In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in History By Kathleen Boone Chapman April 2014 CERTIFICATION OF APPROVAL ADAM SANDLER: MENTOR OF MASCULINITY AND FATHERHOOD by Kathleen Boone Chapman Signed Certification of Approval Page is on file with the University Library Dr. Bret E. Carroll Date Professor of History Dr. Samuel Regalado Date Professor of History Dr. Marcy Rose Chvasta Date Professor of Communications © 2014 Kathleen Boone Chapman ALL RIGHTS RESERVED DEDICATION I am dedicating this work to my three dear friends: Ronda James, Candace Paulson, and Michele Sniegoski. Ronda’s encouragement and obedience to the Lord gave me what I needed to go back to school with significant health issues and so late in life. Candace, who graduated from Stanford “back in the olden days,” to quote our kids, inspired me to follow my dream and become all God wants me to be. Michele’s long struggle with terminal kidney disease motivated me to keep living in spite of my own health issues. We have laughed and cried together over many years, but all of you have given me strength to carry on. Sorry two of you made it to heaven before I could get this finished. I also want to give credit to my husband of forty years who has been a faithful breadwinner, proof-reader, and a paragon of patience. What more could any woman ask for? He has also put up with me yelling at my computer and cursing Bill Gates – A LOT.

  • Actors Anonymous of Legion the Watching from Thrill Different a Be Will That Me, for But, Audience
    NOTES FROM THE DREAM FACTORY BY TOM ROSTON he first met when they were both in the 2002 Broadway play Burn This. And although we’re talking about Burrell, Norton might as well be speaking about his own brilliant debut in 1996’s Primal Fear, when he, seemingly out of nowhere, rocketed to recognition. “It is a very particular kind of excitement,” he says. “There is no sense of the artifice. That’s what’s really thrilling.” I am always hoping for pure moments when I watch a movie: those times when my disbelief is so entirely suspended that I forget that I’m watching one. Going into a theater, I often feel overwhelmed with baggage—who the main actor slept with last week, how the director mortgaged his house to get the movie made, and how the production designer only used three shades of green on the set. It even bugs me that once I like a director or an actor, I expect something from him or her, and so the work has an added layer of self-consciousness. When the lights go down, it’s hard to wash the slate entirely clean and just watch. That’s why my eyes tend to drift toward the margins for something surprising. And, often, I see it in an actor whom I know nothing about, and who brings something deeper and richer to his character even though he may have just two minutes of screen time. This may seem random (and that’s the point), but do you remember in the Will Smith movie Hitch, which I just caught on DVD, that there’s this misogynist asshole who is, well, such an asshole? Actor Jeffrey Donovan gets it just right.
