Prof. Melis Behlil September, 2013 This thesis aims to investigate a recent trend in contemporary American cinema, which I call “bromantic comedy.” These comedy films have been increasingly coming out since the early 2000s. They are defined by their considerable use of gross-out humor, and their depiction of the average American male. Bromantic comedies direct their attention to homosocial interaction, or “bromance”, as well as heterosexual relationships. Since it is a fairly recent phenomenon, there is little relevant academic research conducted on the genre.

  • Shopping for Fangs
    Shopping for Fangs Dir: Quentin Lee and Justin Lin, USA, 1997 A review by Luca Prono, Bologna, Italy Marketed as a manifesto on "GenerAsian X" and representative of a new generation of Asian American film-makers, Shopping for Fangssuccessfully adds a new dimension to the theme of the quest for a hyphenated identity. Most of the characters in the film are apparently completely assimilated to the American ways and do not explicitly brood over the possible clash between their Asian cultural heritage and their present Americanized life-styles. Yet, as the film progresses, it becomes clear that its central characters are living in a phase of transition between different identities. As Edward O'Neill has pointed out, the film itself mirrors self-reflexively this transition in its narrative, one that borrows liberally from such diverse genres as horror, melodrama, thriller and martial arts. Its situations and characters derive from a wide assortment of film icons ranging from John Woo and Quentin Tarantino to Alfred Hitchcock and Brian De Palma, from Kim Novak to Marilyn Monroe. Therefore, Shopping for Fangsaffirms a typically post-modern mode of identity, one that "celebrates the picaresque possibilities of inventing and changing identities, of being different from oneself, of assuming other people's lives and living them as theatrical experience." Set in Los Angeles, the film follows the three parallel, and, for some brief moments, interlocking narratives of Trinh, a lesbian waitress who constantly wears a blond wig and sunglasses, Katherine, an unhappy wife suffering from periods of blackouts and Phil, a lonely accountant working for the corporation of Katherine's husband.
