Throughout his directorial career, Clint Eastwood's movies have presented sympathetic narratives of characters enduring personal trauma as they turn to violence to survive calamity or sustain social order--a choice that leaves them marginalized rather than redeemed.
In this collection of new essays, contributors examine his films--from The Outlaw Josey Wales to Sully--as studies on PTSD that expose the social conditions that tolerate or trigger traumatization and (in his more recent work) imagine a way through individual and collective trauma.
Charles R. Hamilton is a professor of English at Northeast Texas Community College in Mount Pleasant, teaching film, literature, and composition, and an adjunct professor at Texas A&M University Central Texas in Killeen. He is the chair of the Adaptation: Literature, Film, and Culture area for the Southwest Popular/American Culture Association. Allen H. Redmon is a professor of English and film studies at Texas A&M University–Central Texas. His research on Carl Theodor Dreyer, Clint Eastwood, and Quentin Tarantino looks at the ways they undermine the violence their films tolerate (if not celebrate).
