Today, we\u2019re watching a video that explores the angry young man trope.<\/em><\/p>\n<hr>\n<\/hr>\n<p>These days, the \u201cangry young man\u201d has political baggage. And, because all art is political, that baggage follows the angry young man into the cinema. He\u2019s masculinity in crisis: a very real, scary, and recognizable flavor of male violence that, unfortunately, isn\u2019t just an on-screen trope.<\/p>\n<p>But, while we might recognize today\u2019s angry young man all too well, the long and complicated history of angry young men on screen is less well-known. As the video essay below describes, the trope originated in the kitchen sink dramas of the British New Wave.<\/p>\n<p>Originally, the angry young man was a dissatisfied working-class hero defined by directionless anger that invariably ended in tragedy. As his reach became more global and less white, his purpose shifted towards political protest.<\/p>\n<p>But, while the angry young men of communities of color have <em>plenty\u00a0<\/em>to be mad about, as the video underlines, their anger is often seen as dangerous rather than heroic. As an aggressive and violent threat rather than a noble protest.<\/p>\n<p>The question, then, is this: who are the angry young men we listen to? And who are the angry young men we challenge?<\/p>\n<p>Watch \u201c<strong>The Angry Young Man Trope, Explained<\/strong>\u201c:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"394\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bCGYSf6LjI4?feature=oembed\" title=\"The Angry Young Man Trope, Explained\" width=\"700\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<hr>\n<\/hr>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_made_this\"><\/span>Who made this?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This video comes courtesy of <strong>The Take<\/strong> (formerly ScreenPrism), a channel dedicated to analyzing film, television, and pop culture.
