Abstract | Using tenets of political psychology, this article analyzes educational implications of contemporary Hollywood partisan political film through two critically acclaimed films released in 2018, "Vice" and "On the Basis of Sex." I argue that these films appeal to confirmation bias and motivated reasoning through the use of villainification and heroification, respectively. Such tactics play on viewers' emotions and become pedagogically problematic when they mask systemic processes, thereby potentially limiting viewers' civic agency. Given that students' civic and political understandings are likely to be shaped by popular culture as much, if not more, than what they encounter within the confines of formal education, a greater understanding of the civic messages found in Hollywood film is needed. (As Provided). |
