More about the book

The book explores the evolution of B-movies during the 1960s, highlighting the shift in teenage audiences' preferences. Initially captivated by beach films featuring bikini-clad starlets and Elvis Presley, by 1966, teens gravitated towards more independent female characters in spy spoofs, hot rod films, and biker flicks, reflecting changing cultural attitudes. This transition showcases the impact of youth culture on cinema and the emergence of more empowered portrayals of women in film.
