Ride the Frontier: Exploring the Myth of the American West on Screen
Flavia Brizio-Skov
With fresh appraisals of popular Westerns, this book examines the history of the genre with a focus on definitional aspects of canon, adaptation and hybridity. The author covers a range of largely unexplored topics, including the role of ""heroines"" in a male-oriented system of film production, and the function of the celluloid Indians.
