“This is a welcome addition to the growing body of academic work on the important yet under-studied area of mediated fatherhood, and within that, to scholarship that critically interrogates the representation of fathers in film. Adopting sociological approaches, McNulty Norton makes a compelling argument to the effect that the figure of the failing father in Hollywood family films of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries is a structuring trope of the genre, and that this is symptomatic of that period’s ‘re-gendering’ of parenthood.” Hannah Hamad, Senior Lecturer of Media and Communication, Cardiff University, UK  “Drawing on detailed analysis of Hollywood films from the 1990s onwards, this engaging book presents a convincing and nuanced argument for the increasing value of authentic father-child relationship on screen: one that relies on a re-gendering rather than de-gendering of parenting.”
