"High Contrast is one of the most illuminating and convincing
discussions yet written on the intersection of race and gender in
contemporary American popular culture. This is film criticism at
its best."—Corey K. Creekmur, University of Iowa
"Willis carefully captures the political complexity of popular film
and shows that there are no easy answers to the meanings of popular
culture in everyday American life. This book will be a central
force in the dialogue about the ways film is inscribed into our
everyday lives."—Dana Polan, University of Southern California
