Abstract:

What is ‘fun’ about the Hollywood version of girlhood? What kinds of pleasure does this version of girlhood invite us to enjoy? Through re-evaluating notions of pleasure and fun, this thesis forms a study of Hollywood girl teen films between 2000-2010. The aesthetic dimensions of commercial girl teen films are particularly underexplored. This study identifies the key aesthetics of girl teen film and articulates the specific types of tactile and kinaesthetic pleasures they are designed to create. Working outside of gendered hierarchies of pleasure and aesthetics, the thesis focuses on ‘look and

Abstract:

This thesis seeks to determine how representations of dyadic teen homosocial bonds and relationships in film lend themselves to queer possibilities. Looking at teens in film across genre, certain types of dyadic homosocial relationships emerge: the best friendship, the antagonistic teen girl friendship, the boys friendship within a wider homosocial milieu, and friendships which fit these types but include gay and lesbian characters. I ground the research by establishing a record of the films released theatrically in the UK between 2000 and 2009 with teens as primary characters, and develop a q

Abstract:

In this dissertation, I bring together film theory, literary criticism, anthropology and psychology to develop a paradigm for the study of teen films that can also be effectively applied to other areas of pop culture studies as well as literary genres. Expanding on Thomas Doherty's discussion of 1950s teen films and Ian Jarvie's study of films as social criticism, I argue that teen films are a discrete genre that appeals to adolescents to the exclusion of other groups. Teen films subvert social mores of the adult world and validate adolescent subculture by reflecting that subculture's values a

Abstract:

Although teen film is littered with tales of young women coming of age, the messages presented in most of these films follow a formula centered on a patriarchal nuclear family ideal, which leads to damaging perceptions regarding gender roles in teenage society. There is the main traditional model of stay at home mother with a father in the role of the breadwinner; the rise of rape culture; and the glass ceiling in the workplace. The young females consuming a mass amount of this media then reflect negatively on themselves. The research following this conundrum was broken into two parts: the pro

Abstract:

This dissertation tracks the operations of broken family discourse through both therapeutic literature and popular teen film. It is interested in the way that young women and girls are implicated in supporting and maintaining the authority of fathers across separated families. The girl--‐power oriented films of the 1990s and 2000s are offered as a productive source for understanding the agency and complex subjectivity of girls who negotiate families marked by separation. In comparison to this girl--‐centric discourse, it is argued the therapeutic literature creates narrow and limited subject p

Abstract:

In late 1980, eleven films that shared the same basic story-structure were produced by North American independent filmmakers. Each of these films depicted a shadowy blade-wielding killer stalking and murdering a group of hedonistic young people in an everyday setting.

By the time that most of the eleven films had been distributed in summer 1981, a new filmtype had been widely recognised by industry personnel. the trade and popular press and young theatregoers.

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis is to analyze the evolution of the teen moving genre during what Henry Jenkins called the modern era of “convergence culture”. The teen movie has always been one of the most prolific and profitable genre since the Fifties. But it went through several changes and adjustments, due to social and cultural changes and to market needs. Thus the portrayal of adolescent characters in teen movie has equally changed through the decades, but it has also maintained some specific characteristics and peculiar patterns. This because teen movie works largely by repeating systematically

This thesis examines the differences between teen romantic comedy films marketed to Generation X teenagers in the 1980s and Generation Y teenagers in the 1990s, focusing on the presentation of gender roles, consumptive behavior, and family.

The 1990s films are examined as continuing a conservative sensibility, but they additionally posit consumption as instrumental to achieving an idealized romance. Romantic comedy is traditionally a conservative genre, but these films illustrate fe

As a critical category, the teen film is still developing, but it has been defined by a number of critics as being—ostensibly—about and for youth.¹ This thesis engages with teen film literature to test the meaning of these terms. As a genre that is precariously positioned between parent culture and youth audiences, teen film’s narratives are always negotiated and the degree to which it is about and for youth is debatable.

Abstract:

This thesis investigates the representations of adolescent femininity in post-2000 American novels and films produced for tween and teen girl audiences. It uses texts with similar narrative structures to compare the effects of adaptation from book-to-film to the effects of adaptation from screenplay-to-junior novelization. The overall methodological approach is discourse analysis, informed by narrative analysis adapted by Brian McFarlane from the work of Roland Barthes to consider the difference between what is transferred across media and what is adapted.
