Description

Product Description This book provides an analysis of the global working class on film and considers the ways in which working-class experience is represented in film around the world. The book argues that representation is important because it shapes the way people understand working-class experience and can either reinforce or challenge stereotypical depictions. Film can shape and shift discussions of class, and this book provides an interdisciplinary study of the ways in which working-class experience is portrayed through this medium. It analyses the impact of contemporary films such as Sorry To Bother You, This is England and Le Harve that focus on working class life. Attfield demonstrates that the global working class are characterised by diversity of race, ethnicity, gender, religion and sexuality but that there are commonalities of experience despite geographical distance and cultural difference. The book is structured around themes such as work, culture, diasporas, gender and sexuality, and race. About the Author Sarah Attfield is a lecturer in the School of Communication in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at the University of Technology Sydney, Australia. She has published journal articles and book chapters on the representation of working-class experience in popular culture and literature. She is the founding co-editor of the Journal of Working-Class Studies.
