Three Kings: neocolonial Arab representation

Lila Kitaeff gives an ideological review of contemporary media through the film Three Kings. The article begins by exploring the current events leading up to the war. Kitaeff gives facts about "Arabs" and President Bush. The first section that focuses on Three Kings directly is the part entitled "The Gulf War on film". This section begins "Three Kings (Dir. David O. Russell, 1999) is a complex film exploring the ramifications of the 1991 Persian Gulf War." Following this is a basic movie overview which leads to the next section, "Non-oppositional critique of Gulf War." These upcoming paragraphs will show a sorting of the main character's individual film history.

"Neocolonial" and "Representation" should be capitalized in the title.
