Description

• This book draws from a variety of theoretical and methodological tools to provide critical cultural analysis and alternative readings of women-strong films and their important role in society.
• It includes case studies on Mad Max: Fury Road, Wonder Woman, Atomic Blonde, Star Wars, and Ghostbusters to analyze critical responses, men's-rights activist boycotting campaigns, online harassment, and the political economy that precede and accompany the creation and presentation of these films.
