Jack and Doris Smothers series in Texas history, life, and culture ; number 41 HKBU library YT2025 M08 "Overturns conventional thinking that the Western genre is essentially conservative. Instead, Brode demonstrates that Hollywood liberals used Westerns to espouse a progressive agenda on a range of issues, including gun control, environmental protection, respect for non-Christian belief systems, and community cohesion versus rugged individualism. Doug Brode takes a new look at dozens of Westerns, including Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, Red River, 3:10 to Yuma (old and new), The Wild Ones, High Noon, My Darling Clementine, The Alamo, and No Country for Old Men"-- Western films History and criticism. 218515 Politics in motion pictures. 156627 Religion in motion pictures. 197152 PERFORMING ARTS / Film & Video / History & Criticism. = C.1 SDU GBE lcc 112108 112108 0 0 lcc 0 PN1995 B863 D2013 0 CGB 279609 SDU SDU GEN3 2025-08-28 2 0 PN1995 B863 D 2013 1000362540 2025-08-28 00:00:00 C.1 2025-08-28 GBE
