520 1 $a"Hollywood and the Pentagon: on one side a great industry, the 'makers of dreams', on the other the US Defence department. What relations unify these two potent symbols of American power? This analysis of mainstream Hollywood movies lifts the lid on the interdependence between these two institutions. The movie industry is exposed as a key protagonist in the US strategy debate through the production of films on national security across many genres, from comedy to thriller, from sci-fi to war movies. This book also explores prevailing ideas on the 'threat' to homeland USA that is put forward by the national security network, a threat that is seen as the justification for, and legitimization of, America's military operations and strategic choices."
520 8 $a"This book reveals how in the last 20 years there has been a consistent collaboration between these two industries: enormous contracts have been exchanged between the studios and the defence department. It shows how Hollywood is completely penetrated by the ideological and political thinking of Washington, which itself appears to be directly inspired by the productions of Hollywood."--Jacket.
