By  investigating the cultural work of films and TV series from the last two  decades, the book uncovers the inherent limitations of a ‘revisionist’  take on the fifties. Ravizza argues that, due to the visual nature of  the fifties—crystallized in American consciousness through the  widespread influence of television—most contemporary attempts to rework  and rewrite the regressive gender, queer, and racial politics fall short  of such a revisionist reevaluation.\u003cbr\u003e​\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: J.B.
