Washed in Blood: Male Sacrifice, Trauma, and the Cinema
Claire Sisco King
Viewers of Hollywood action films are no doubt familiar with the sacrificial victim-hero, the male protagonist who nobly gives up his life so that others may be saved. Washed in Blood argues that such sacrificial films are especially prominent in eras when the nation–and American manhood–is thought to be in crisis.
