The Contemporary Western: An American Genre Post 9/11

In this book, John White explores how films such as 'Open Range', 'True Grit' and 'Jane Got a Gun' reinforce a conservative myth of America exceptionalism; endorsing the use of extreme force in dealing with enemies and highlighting the importance of defending the homeland.
