This dissertation looks at three U.S. film cycles from the last 40 years -- the Cowboy Trucker in the 1970s, the Brom-com from 1990s-2010, and Alaska-based reality television shows from the late 2000s and into the present cable reality television era -- to connect them to neoliberal transformations of the workplace. Examining how whiteness and masculinity have been represented historically and currently as responses to reproducing class processes and positions allows us to trace the functions of non-class processes and positions on class representations in cinematic media. By using a dual formal-social analysis, I link the filmic elements of specifically chosen cinematic media to the social context in which they are used to illustrate the overdetermined nature of the social forces and the cinematic media of each period. Representations of whiteness and masculinity are used to "stand in" for class positions when necessary to reinforce the capitalist project by sublimating class recognition. By eliding class processes, this substitution divides and fractures the working force. Thus hegemony of multiple iterations of masculinities and whiteness function to delimit dialogue about class for one based on political subjectivities. By highlighting class processes and positions as an entry point, I hope to restore some balance between class analysis and theories of political identity and to highlight the necessarily mutually constitutive relationship between gender, race, and class.
