SynopsisThe only text of its kind to explore central topics in sociology through feature films This one-of-a-kind text takes readers beyond watching movies; it helps them "see" films sociologically and develops critical thinking and analytical skills that will be useful in college coursework and beyond.

Exploring a variety of captivating classic and current films such as Forty Year Old Virgin, The Devil Wears Prada, North Country, and My Fair Lady , this unique book helps students to view films sociologically while also providing much needed pedagogy for teaching sociology through film., The only text of its kind to explore central topics in sociology through feature films This one-of-a-kind text takes readers beyond watching movies; it helps them "see" films sociologically and develops critical thinking and analytical skills that will be useful in college coursework and beyond.
