Description
Does Hollywood's portrayal of villains reinforce racial stereotypes or does the industry give the public what it wants? This program explores the history of film's ethnic "bad guy," looking at sociopolitical and economic forces that create, perpetuate, and rehabilitate these characters. Special attention is paid to current depictions of Muslims. Film clips from "Birth of a Nation" to "The Sopranos" provide examples, while actors, screenwriters, film reviewers, and other Hollywood professionals lend their perspectives.
