    In the Company of Modern Men: Representations of Masculinity in Contemporary Hollywood Comedies A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Fine Arts of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Nicholas D. Bambach August 2016 © 2016 Nicholas D. Bambach. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled In the Company of Modern Men: Representations of Masculinity in Contemporary Hollywood Comedies by NICHOLAS D. BAMBACH has been approved for the School of Film and the College of Fine Arts by Ofer Eliaz Assistant Professor of Film Elizabeth Sayrs Interim Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT BAMBACH, NICHOLAS D., M.A., August 2016, Film In the Company of Modern Men: Representations of Masculinity in Contemporary Hollywood Comedies Director of Thesis: Ofer Eliaz This thesis discusses the increasing visibility of masculine identity in contemporary Hollywood comedies. I examine how shifting developments in economic, societal, cultural, and gender relations impacted the perception of cinematic masculinity. The men, more specifically white and heterosexual, in these films position themselves as victims and, as a result, turn to alternative outlets to ease their frustrations and anxieties. In order to broadly survey the genre of the past two decades, I focus on three consistently popular character tropes in Hollywood comedies: slackers, office workers, and bromantic friendships. All the male characters discussed throughout the thesis are plagued by their innermost anxieties and desires that compromise their gendered identities. However, these films resort to a regressive understanding of masculinity and functions within the dominant heteronormative structures. This thesis demonstrates how Hollywood comedies present a contradictory and multifaceted image of modern masculinity.

  • Big Hero 6 This Is Where I Leave You Enders Game
    by: Wendy Jane Henson IN THEATERS, ON DVD, AND FROM TV ON DEMAND: Wendy Jane Henson has lived in Tualatin since 1992. A former college instructor in creative writing and theater arts (PCC, Marylhurst, and PSU), she is a published author with articles and two books in print, a screenwriter and playwright, and a former producer and director in educational and non-profit theater. KIDS AND FAMILY BIG HERO 6 2014, 1hr. 33 min., Rating: PG, Common Sense Rating: 7+ This animated feature from Walt Disney Studios is a family oriented, action comedy which offers the kind of positive messages kids of all ages can appreciate. Presented in the superhero comic mode, including a scary super villain, which is so popular these days, the story keeps its focus on brotherhood, friendship and helping others. It also deals candidly but kindly with a more profound theme of coping with the loss of a loved one. If you want a movie with heart and humor that the entire family can enjoy, this is a worthy choice. COMEDY THIS IS WHERE I LEAVE YOU 2014, 1 hr. 43 min., Rating: R, Common Sense Rating: 16+ Based on a best-selling novel by Jonathan Tropper, who co-wrote the screenplay, the movie’s award winning actors, led by Jason Bateman, Tina Fey, and Jane Fonda, struggle to make the film a success. Sadly, it’s a struggle just for the film to make sense. A dysfunctional family loses their father, because of whom they believe they are dysfunctional. Stuck together under the same roof for a week, they try to work out the mishmash of their lives.

    A film by Martin Scorsese Opens in cinemas nationally on FEBRUARY 16, 2017 PUBLICITY REQUESTS: Transmission Films Australia / Amy Burgess +61 2 8333 9000 / [email protected] IMAGES High res images and key art poster available to via the DOWNLOAD MEDIA tab at: http://www.transmissionfilms.com.au/films/silence 1 PRODUCTION INFORMATION Martin Scorsese’s Silence, the Academy Award winning director’s long anticipated film about faith and religion, tells the story of two 17th century Portuguese missionaries who undertake a perilous journey to Japan to search for their missing mentor, Father Christavao Ferreira, and to spread the gospel of Christianity. Scorsese directs Silence from a screenplay he wrote with Jay Cocks. The film, based on Shusaku Endo’s 1966 award-winning novel, examines the spiritual and religious question of God’s silence in the face of human suffering. Martin Scorsese and Emma Koskoff and Irwin Winkler produce alongside Randall Emmett, Barbara De Fina, Gastón Pavlovich, and Vittorio Cecchi Gori with executive producers Dale A. Brown, Matthew J. Malek, Manu Gargi, Ken Kao, Dan Kao, Niels Juul, Chad A. Verdi, Gianni Nunnari, Len Blavatnik and Aviv Giladi. Silence stars Andrew Garfield (The Amazing Spider Man, Hacksaw Ridge), Adam Driver (Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Paterson) and Liam Neeson (Schindler’s List, Taken). The film follows the young missionaries, Father Sebastian Rodrigues (Garfield) and Father Francisco Garupe (Driver) as they search for their missing teacher and mentor and minister to the Christian villagers they encounter who are forced to worship in secret. At that time in Japan, feudal lords and ruling Samurai were determined to eradicate Christianity in their midst; Christians were persecuted and tortured, forced to apostatize, that is, renounce their faith or face a prolonged and agonizing death.
