This study celebrates the "anarchistic" film comedies made in the USA in the 1930s, which mocked the creativity and impulsiveness of their protagonists in a form of clowning that ultimately re-established the status quo. Films discussed include "Duck Soup" and W.C. Fields's "It's a Gift".

Henry Jenkins is Assistant Professor of Film and Media Studies at MIT. He is author of Textual Poachers: Television Fans and Participatory Culture. He is coauthor of The Science Fiction Audience: Dr.Who, Star Trek, and Their Fans.
