"Wide ranging and critically deep, Hollywood at the Intersection of Race and Identity addresses the persistence of race in Hollywood film with considerable implications for the intersection of racism, misogyny, and identity we see today on big and small screens alike."
Daniel Bernardi, editor of Race in American Film: Voices and Visions that Shaped a Nation

Hollywood at the Intersection of Race and Identity explores the ways Hollywood represents race, gender, class, and nationality at the intersection of aesthetics and ideology and its productive tensions. This collection of essays asks to what degree can a close critical analysis of films, that is, reading them against their own ideological grain, reveal contradictions and tensions in Hollywood's task of erecting normative cultural standards? How do some films perhaps knowingly undermine their inherent ideology by opening a field of conflicting and competing intersecting identities? The challenge set out in this volume is to revisit well-known films in search for a narrative not exclusively constituted by the Hollywood formula and to answer the questions: What lies beyond the frame? What elements contradict a film's sustained illusion of a normative world? Where do films betray their own ideology and most importantly what intersectional spaces of identity do they reveal or conceal?

"Wide ranging and critically deep, Hollywood at the Intersection of Race and Identity addresses the persistence of race in Hollywood film with considerable implications for the intersection of racism, misogyny, and identity we see today on big and small screens alike."
Daniel Bernardi, editor of Race in American Film: Voices and Visions that Shaped a Nation
"This is a timely collection - forthright, expansive, and right up to date. Commonly situated at the margins of discussions of race and identity, intersectionality here is placed at the center, crucial to understanding Hollywood's uneven engagement with race, social justice, and ethics. These rigorous and generous readings of key moments across cinema history reveal Hollywood encountering and marking more fluid senses of identity than usually credited to popular film. In all this book shows how, in bell hooks's terms, Hollywood can 'make culture' in problematic, revealing, and surprisingly anticipatory ways."
Jeffrey Geiger, author of American Documentary Film: Projecting the Nation
"Konzett deserves thanks for curating another must-have book on cinema studies. Highly recommended."
