Masculinity, heroes, and beady little eyes

Post by me »

HulloAnother article about the film - this time it discusses masculinity and heroes. Don't worry - I don't intend to post each review of the film when it comes out here - but these articles are discussions, so I thought other people might be interested in them.http://enjoyment.independent.co.uk/film ... y=594641It is written in a slightly tongue in cheek style, but I think it has valid points to make about changing views of masculinity/sexuality, Hollywoodisation of stories, and taboos in our own time (eg gods, heroes and militarism).Linda

It seemed like the man that wrote the article had too much coffee. I wondered how he could breathe.
