Summary note
American film in the first decade of the new millennium became a cultural battleground on which a war of representation was waged, but did these films endorse the 'War on Terror' or criticise it? More than just reproducing these fears and fantasies, The 'War on Terror and American Film' argues that American cinema has played a significant role in shaping them, restructuring how audiences have viewed the 'War on Terror' in particularly influential ways.
