"This historical study explores the structure, myths and intertextual narratives found in the gangster films produced since The Godfather. The relationship between masculinity and ethnicity in the gangster film, especially within the movie-generated mythology of the Mafia, is carefully analyzed. The book tracks the trends in the genre up to and including the television series The Sopranos"--Provided by publisher.
