It makes a novel contribution to the history of youth and emotions, arguing that for boys and young men who were disconnected from social life, the cinema was an "emotional refuge," a space of heightened emotional encounter, in which conventional assumptions about masculinity could be fractured and "feminine" sensibilities otherwise difficult to express publicly could receive cathartic release.
