From dwarves to princes, heroes to heartbreakers, the Disney treatment
of male characters in the studio’s animated features. One of
PopSugar’s Best Books for Women (2013) From the iconic Snow White
and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) to Tangled, the 2010 retelling of
Rapunzel, Handsome Heroes and Vile Villains looks at the portrayal of
male characters in Disney films from the perspective of masculinity
studies and feminist film theory. This companion volume to Good Girls
and Wicked Witches places these depictions within the context of
Hollywood and American popular culture at the time of each film’s
release. “Within her idealism and love for the House of the
Mouse, it seems Davis is on to something. Whether idealistic or
delusional, the Disney she talks about seems to be a thing that’s
waiting just around the corner.” —PopMatters
