Kearney ____________________________________ Thomas Schatz The Musical Mode: Rock and Hollywood Cinema by Kevin John Bozelka, B.A, M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin December 2008 Dedication To my father, John Leonard Bozelka and my mother Georgia Rose (1938-1993) Acknowledgements I would first like to thank my family for their support throughout this exceedingly long journey. Without them, said journey would be even longer. I also would like to thank the professors at University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee who provided me with an impeccable undergraduate education in film and television – Lynne Joyrich, Patricia Mellencamp, and, especially, Patrice Petro. They made the transition into graduate school much smoother and remain a model of academic excellence. Although he probably does not know it, Will Straw, my mentor and academic idol in Montréal, directly inspired this project with an off-the cuff but typically insightful comment he made in one of his amazing courses at McGill University where I achieved my MA. His ability to straddle film and popular music studies so brilliantly is a standard to which I will always aspire. I am not sure what I did to deserve Janet Staiger.
