Research Interests | My areas of interest tend to gravitate towards the historical role of cinema in relation to larger paradigms of legibility, in a loosely Jamesonian vein. In particular, I have researched the development of film genres from a cultural-historical perspective (e.g. the combat film and the investigative thriller in the post 9/11 years) or the legacy of deep-rooted spatial structures (the city, the frontier, the house) in American films at the onset of the millennium. |
