America on Film, first published in 2002, examines how the notion of 'American' has changed from American cinema up to the 1950s. In works such as Malcolm X , Raging Bull, When We Were Kings, and Bugsy Sam Girgus finds a new and ethnically varied array of characters that embody American values, ideals, and conflicts.
