Les Majors hollywoodiennes et les récentes interventions militaires américaines : y a-t-il une nouvelle façon de filmer la guerre ?

Nathalie Dupont

Abstract :
In the 15 years that followed the American defeat in Vietnam, the Hollywood Majors first maintained the war films genre alive by gradually rehabilitating their army on screen, seeming thus to take their cue from the population’s frame of mind. Since American troops once again started getting involved abroad, the Hollywood producers have given the go-ahead to projects dealing with the subject, eventually releasing films which, for commercial reasons, do not show a complete renewal of the filming process of the genre, but which echo its evolution somewhere between pessimism and jingoism.
