The Most Savage Film


Book Description

Described by the BBC as 'one of the most significant American films ever made', ""Soldier Blue"" became explosively linked to real events of the Vietnam War as a result of the uncanny similarities between the U.S. Cavalry's extermination of Native Americans depicted at the film's finale and the American massacre of Vietnamese civilians at My Lai in 1968, just two years before the film was released.Drawing on primary sources and interviews with individuals associated with the production, this work solves the longstanding mystery of whether ""Soldier Blue"", a picture that set a new mark in cinematic violence in 1970, deliberately echoed events in the Vietnam War. In addition, the author details the bizarre location shoot in Mexico, describes the various post-production and censorship problems encountered by the film's director and producers, and examines the circumstances in and beyond the American film industry in the late 1960s that led to the creation of such a radical and bitter film. Richly illustrated with many rare and previously unpublished photographs, the book also contains four appendices providing a complete list of cast/crew credits, a revised final budget for the film, complete reproductions of two 1971 British articles on the film and a reproduction of a ""Harper's Weekly"" article from 1885.




Cruel Children in Popular Texts and Cultures


Book Description

This book explores how alarmist social discourses about 'cruel' young people fail to recognize the complexity of cruelty and the role it plays in child agency. Examining representations of cruel young people in popular texts and popular culture, the collected essays demonstrate how gender, race, and class influence who gets labeled 'cruel' and which actions are viewed as negative, aggressive, and disruptive. It shows how representations of cruel young people negotiate the violence that shadows polite society, and how narratives of cruelty and aggression are used to affirm, or to deny, young people’s agency.
