Sir Arthur Conan Doyle at the Cinema : A Critical Study of the Film Adaptations
Eleven critical essays on Aaron Sorkin's works Malice, A Few Good Men, The American President, Sports Night, and The West Wing:
Introduction and interview with Aaron Sorkin - Thomas Fahy.
Mannerist Noir: Malice - Robert F. Gross
In Plain View and the Dark Unknown: Narratives of the Feminine Body in Malice - Susann Cokal
Athletes, Grammar Geeks, and Porn Stars: The Liberal Education of Sports Night - Thomas Fahy
A Phantom Fly and Frightening Fish: The Unconscious Speaks in Sports Night - Douglas Keesey
His Girl Friday (and Every Day): Brilliant Women Put to Poor Use - Kirstin Ringelberg
Depictions of the U.S. Military: Only "A Few Good Men" Need Apply - Fiona Mills
Giving Propaganda a Good Name: The West Wing - Ann C. Hall
Handling the Truth: Sorkin's Liberal Vision - Spencer Downing
Virtue From Vice: Duty, Power, and The West Wing - Nathan A. Paxton
Women of The West Wing: Gender Stereotypes in the Political Fiction - Laura K. Garrett
The Republic of Sorkin: A View From the Cheap Seats - John Nein
The major themes of the essays were generally things I'd never really thought about in Sorkin's work before, like sexism/feminism, using higher education as a weapon, and power + virtue. Also often discussed was Sorkin's ideal vision of government/politics, America, and American society. Very interesting articles.
