520 |a Claire Sisco King offers an in-depth study of three prominent cycles of Hollywood films that follow the sacrificial narrative: the early-to-mid 1970s, the mid-to-late 1990s, and the mid-to-late 2000s.

What she uncovers is a cinematic tendency to position straight white men as America's most valuable citizens - and its noblest victims.
