ITEM OVERVIEW
This book collects renowned culture critic bell hooks' writings on film from the last few years. It includes the infamous "Whose Pussy Is It," an essay about Spike Lee's She's Gotta Have It, and also newer work on Pulp Fiction and Waiting To Exhale among others. She pursues the ways that film can paradoxically function subversively as much as it functions to maintain the status quo.
