These films are identified and defined in this book as remasculation pictures, or narratives that showcase the hero's oscillation between two oppositional expressions of screen masculinity. In the rhetoric of the remasculation film, the protagonist's emasculation initiates a quest to remasculate by reaffirming the dominance and authority of the hypermasculine archetype.
