Trevor Lynch’s Classics of Right-Wing Cinema

Trevor Lynch views cinema and television from the Right. Trevor Lynch’s Classics of Right-Wing Cinema is his fifth anthology. Lynch looks at Right-wing themes-anti-liberalism, anti-Communism, masculinism, vigilantism-in such films as Taxi Driver, American History X, Dirty Harry and its sequels, Conan the Barbarian, The Bostonians, The Incredibles, The Last Emperor, Withnail & I, and John Ford’s The Searchers and The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. Lynch also gives Rightist takes on David Lean’s The Bridge on the River Kwai, Lawrence of Arabia, and Doctor Zhivago; Michael Powell’s Black Narcissus, The Life & Death of Colonel Blimp, and The Red Shoes; David Lynch’s The Elephant Man, Twin Peaks, and Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me; and Ingmar Bergman’s Fanny & Alexander.
