Summary:
"Since 9/11, the Western has seen a resurgence, blending its patriotic narrative with criticism of America's place. Exploring such films as True Grit (2010) and Brokeback Mountain (2005), along with series like Deadwood and Firefly, this collection of new essays explores how the Western today captures the dichotomy of our times and remains important to the American psyche"-- Provided by publisher.
