  • Middlebrow Cinema
    3 MUMBAI MIDDLEBROW Ways of thinking about the middle ground in Hindi cinema Rachel Dwyer The word ‘middlebrow’, associated with Victorian phrenology and cultural snobbery, is usually a derogatory term and may not seem useful as a way of understanding Hindi cinema, now usually known as Bollywood (Rajadhyaksha 2003; Vasudevan 2010). However, the social and economic changes of the last twenty-five years, which are producing India’s growing new middle classes, a social group whose culture is closely linked to the cultural phenomenon of Bollywood (Dwyer 2000; 2014a), suggest that the term may usefully be deployed to look at the often ignored middle ground of Hindi cinema, which lies somewhere between the highbrow art cinema and lowbrow masala (‘spicy’, entertainment) films (Dwyer 2011a). I suggest that the term can be used for a certain type of contemporary Hindi cinema which can be traced back several decades, in parallel with the changes that have affected India’s middle classes. Defining the middlebrow In academic discourse, commentators have turned to Pierre Bourdieu’s concept of ‘culture moyenne’ (outlined, for example, in his study of photography), to describe the middlebrow as a cultural category that is imitative of legitimate, high cul- ture, and makes art accessible in a popular form (Bourdieu 1996; 1999, 323). Beth Driscoll’s study of middlebrow literature over the twenty-first century offers eight features of the category: middle-class, reverential, commercial, feminized, medi- ated, recreational, emotional and earnest (2014, 3). Sally Faulkner, on the other hand, defines middlebrow cinema as combining high production values, subject matter that is serious but not challenging and cultural references that are presented in an accessible form (2013, 8).
