Planet of the Apes as American Myth: Race, Politics, and Popular Culture
Planet of the Apes as American Myth: Race, Politics, and Popular Culture Wesleyan | December-15-1998 | ISBN: 0819563293 | 286 pages | PDF | 2.1MB
Eric Greene's book is a thoughtful discussion of the ideas present in the Apes movies. Even if the makers might deny that they intended them to be social commentary, the Apes movies certainly inspire a review of the social scene in the 1960's from which these movies sprang forth.
By comparison, how something like Star Wars can be praised as mythology and the Apes movies ignored is beyond me.
