Description





Hollywood Utopia applies a range of interdisciplinary strategies to trace the evolution of ecological representations in Hollywood film from 1950s to the present. Popular science fiction, westerns, nature and road movies are extensively analysed while privileging ecological moments of sublime expression often dramatized in the closing moments of these films.

By Stephen A. Rust on March 6, 2013

Hollywood Utopia argues that Hollywood films since at least the 1950s have been an important site for viewers to engage with environmental issues. Brereton calls our attention not only to films with obvious environmental themes like Soylent Green and Logan's Run but also to films where ecology bubbles up from beneath the surface, as in Titanic. The book is expansive and thought provoking and a lynchpin in the growing field of ecocinema studies.
