Exploring the intersection of society and cinema, the book delves into the historical and social factors that contribute to the allure of violence in films. Hansen-Miller argues that modern society has both concealed and embraced violence, influencing daily life. By analyzing narratives from the past century and contemporary cinema, the author reveals how these representations not only highlight the importance of violence but also reshape our comprehension of its role in society.
