  • A Queer Analysis of the James Bond Canon
    MALE BONDING: A QUEER ANALYSIS OF THE JAMES BOND CANON by Grant C. Hester A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, FL May 2019 Copyright 2019 by Grant C. Hester ii MALE BONDING: A QUEER ANALYSIS OF THE JAMES BOND CANON by Grant C. Hester This dissertation was prepared under the direction of the candidate's dissertation advisor, Dr. Jane Caputi, Center for Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, Communication, and Multimedia and has been approved by the members of his supervisory committee. It was submitted to the faculty of the Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters and was accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Khaled Sobhan, Ph.D. Interim Dean, Graduate College iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Jane Caputi for guiding me through this process. She was truly there from this paper’s incubation as it was in her Sex, Violence, and Hollywood class where the idea that James Bond could be repressing his homosexuality first revealed itself to me. She encouraged the exploration and was an unbelievable sounding board every step to fruition. Stephen Charbonneau has also been an invaluable resource. Frankly, he changed the way I look at film. His door has always been open and he has given honest feedback and good advice. Oliver Buckton possesses a knowledge of James Bond that is unparalleled. I marvel at how he retains such information.

  • Bond Rerouted: 007 and the Internal Conflict In/Of Digital Media
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2013 Bond Rerouted: 007 and the Internal Conflict in/of Digital Media Binotto, Johannes Abstract: While the James Bond that we know from the movies is equipped with almost superhuman qualities, the original character in Ian Fleming’s novels seems much more fragile. Being in constant battle not only with the political enemy but also with his internal, neurotic conflicts, Bond needs his missions as defense mechanisms to prevent him from psychological breakdown. This essay argues that the second to last installment of the Bond movie series, the 2008 film Quantum of Solace finally confronts this neurotic aspect of 007, not so much by psychologizing the character but rather by transposing internal conflict to the filmic level. The complex visual strategies of digitally enhanced filmmaking, with its over-determined images, depict a conflicted war zone where not only the secret agent but also the very system heis defending is shown as being ultimately split and pitted against itself.

  • 1 CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION “The Ultimate Weakness of Violence Is
    CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION “The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral, begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it... Through violence you may murder the hater, but you do not murder hate. In fact, violence merely increases hate... Returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars.” — Martin Luther King, Jr. 1.0 Statement of the Problem The purpose of this research is to examine the phenomenon of intra-racial violence from the perspectives of black men who have engaged in violent acts against other black men. Violence is an American problem, as opposed to a problem that is characteristic of one group. Zimring and Hawkins argue that, “it is beyond foolishness to regard American violence as solely, or mainly, or even distinctly a black problem. Excluding blacks, the estimated homicide [rate]…for the United States is well over three times the homicide rate of the six nations and twice as the high as the second highest, Italy” (1997:82). While this may be true, there is still a great disparity in crime statistics between whites and blacks, and for that matter black men and every other race/gender group. According to Zimring and Hawkins (1997), we live in the most violent society on the face of the earth. Statistical information demonstrates that African American men are disproportionately offenders and victims of violence (Paschall, Flewelling and Ennett 1998). In 2003, per every 1,000 persons in that racial group, 29 blacks, 22 whites and 16 persons of others races were victimized by a violent crime.

Six movies were chosen for this analysis: Casino Royale, Wanted, The Dark Knight, RocknRolla, Too Big to Fail and The Accountant. The results indicate that some stereotypes remain linear in relation to previous studies. The demystification of some stereotypes is already being made in film production, as it is also noticeable that the accountant characters have more performances in the films. In general, considering the movies in this analysis, the accountants were portrayed in a positive way. However, some features are still represented negatively. In the movies, the professional was characterized as neutral (not exactly good or bad), peaceful, unhappy, neutral (not exactly cheerful or grumpy), intelligent, efficient, fulfilled, confident, trustworthy, incommunicative, influential and proactive. This research brings to light the accountants presented in the films, contributing to the public and society views of how accountants really behave.

Betty met Roth at a dance and asked him during the course of conversation what he did for a living. The exchanges went something like this: Al (swelling out his chest and trying to look nonchalant "I'm a professional boxer." Betty (surprised): What a coincidence! My boy friend is a fighter—his name is Harry Mizler." Al: "Oh, that guy. I may be meeting him in the ring soon which will be tough luck for him. I’ll slaughter him." TIPPED FOR TITLE That story may carry more than one moral, but it may also have spurred Mizler to be at the peak or his form and outpoint the American by an overwhelming margin over ten rounds. Certainly Harry looked brilliant and besides being awarded a "Boxing News" Certificate of Merit was very strongly tipped to regain the British lightweight title. For the contest, made at ten stone. John Harding paid Mizler £250 and Roth £150. And to this day looks back at the promotion and considers it the best bargain he over made.
