The Girls of Zeta: Sororities, Ideal Femininity and the Makeover Paradigm in "The House Bunny"; Joel Gwynne -- 5.

Hollywood Fatherhood: Paternal Postfeminism in Contemporary Popular Cinema; Hannah Hamad -- 9. Mancaves and Cushions: Marking Masculine and Feminine Domestic Space in Postfeminist Romantic Comedy; Lauren Jade Thompson -- 10. 'We're not making forward progress': Postfeminist Hypermasculinity in "Heat"; Vincent M. Gaine -- PART III: POSTFEMINISM AND GENRE -- 11.

'A New Feminist Revolution in Hollywood Comedy'?: Postfeminist Discourses and the Critical Reception of "Bridesmaids"; Helen Warner -- 14. Blood, Sweat and Tears: Women, Sport and Hollywood; Katharina Lindner.

"Much ground has been covered in terms of (post)feminist analyses of popular film and television, and box office successes such as Bridget Jones's Diary and television phenomena such as Sex and the City have become established parts of the now canonical critical texts on postfeminism, media and popular culture. By analyzing the negotiation of femininities and masculinities within contemporary Hollywood cinema, by charting trends in film production and media reception, and by focusing on the largely neglected intersections between postfeminism and queer theory, Postfeminism and Contemporary Hollywood Cinema presents diverse interrogations of popular cinema. The chapters in this collection position contemporary commercial production as a space where female empowerment is both celebrated and undermined, and signal the necessity of further debate surrounding the formation of gender identity in postmillennial Hollywood cinema.
