Reel Bad Arabs: How Hollywood Vilifies a People

الغلاف الأمامي
Arris, 2003 - 574 من الصفحات
A groundbreaking book that dissects a slanderous history dating from cinema's earliest days to contemporary Hollywood blockbusters that feature bedouin bandits, sinister sheikhs, machinegun wielding and bomb-blowing 'evil' Arabs. In this comprehensive study of nearly one thousand films, award-winning film authority Jack Shaheen documents the tendency to portray Muslim Arabs as Public Enemy No. 1 - brutal, heartless, uncivilised, bent on terrorising civilised Westerners. He examines how and why such a stereotype has grown and spread in the film industry and what may be done to change Hollywood's defamation of Arabs.
