Social identity at the intersection of Method acting and Hollywoodıs
³problem films²

CINEMATIC IDENTITY: Anatomy of a Problem Film
Allan Stoekl
University of Minnesota Press | 200 pages | 2007
ISBN 978-0-8166-3411-8 | hardcover | $58.50
ISBN 978-0-8166-3412-5 | paperback | $19.50
Theory Out of Bounds Series, volume 29

Cindy Patton takes Pinky as a starting point to meditate on the critical
reception of this and other ³problem films² and to explore the larger issues
they raise about race, gender, and sexuality. Patton historicizes ³problem
films² and the arrival of Method acting in Hollywood, and in doing so offers
new perspectives on identity politics, from feminism to the gay rights
movement.
