a philosophical and sociological exploration of the power of myth in modern society through a film genre... wasn't expecting that.
B.J. Keeton
I really look forward to using this one for more research and reading more of what Wright has to say about the Western. While at PCA, I noticed a lot that I can do with my generic analysis that includes character archetypes other than the Hero, so as I look at the Western aspect of LOST and other literature, I can see no reason why Wright won't be one of the main sources in that part of my genre studies.
