Abstract

Continuing the analysis of the Irish characters in American cinema, the chapter focuses on New Hollywood films, i.e., those made between about 1967 and 1982. Despite the enormous improvement of the social position of the Irish in America, they continued to be represented as violent. In addition, the end of the Production Code and the freedom of artistic expression characterizing New Hollywood has led to the appearance of even more violent characters on the screen. The best examples of such a figure are Harry Callahan from the Dirty Harry series of films and Jimmy “Popeye” Doyle from The French Connection, who represent the new type of Irish American outlaw heroes. At the same time, once popular Irish gangsters and boxers are presented as characters who are past their prime.
