Reconsidering tropes such as the male juvenile delinquent figure, the makeover and the teen vampire, the book uses a series of detailed case studies of films like Rebel Without a Cause, Grease, Heathers and Twilight to explore the genre's relation to critical concepts of intersectionality, postfeminism and the posthuman. This book is an innovative overview of the Hollywood teen movie and its construction of teen identity." -- taken from back coverNotes: Includes bibliographical references (pages 192-202), filmography (pages 203-208), and index.ISBN: 9781474431729Contents: List of Figures -- Acknowledgements -- 1.Introduction -- 2.Rethinking the Teen Movie -- 3.Acting Up: Performing Masculine Delinquency in the Teen Movie -- 4.Making Over: Gender and Class at the High School Prom -- 5.Looking Back: Nostalgia, Postfeminism and the Teen Movie -- 6.Becoming Other: The Posthuman and the Teen Movie -- 7.Conclusion: Not Another Teen Movie? -- Bibliography -- Filmography -- Index

She examines the metamorphosis of Jane Austen's novel Emma into the Beverly Hills comedy Clueless and the way the American Pie trilogy has subverted the gross-out sex comedy into a lesson in sexual manners. She looks at the link between these films and some of the most innovative teen television of the last two decades, including Popular, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the teen detective show Veronica Mars. In the process, she demonstrates how teen films and tv series deal with the tragic and comic undersides of the American dream."--BOOK JACKET.Notes: Includes indexes.ISBN: 9781845111847Contents: Teen dreams: the critic at the prom -- John Hughes and the creation of a genre -- The friends who are bad for you: Heathers -- The heirs of Heather: Cordelia, Nicole and other mean girls -- The canon as teen dream: Clueless and others -- The trouble with boys -- On being good at things: female competence and sexuality -- Watching the teen detective: Veronica Mars.
