“I Love You, Man”

“I Love You, Man”, a comedy released in 2009, is a rich critique of contemporary gender roles and stereotyped images of male bonding. Through a comedic lens the film explores contradictions embedded in male behavior, including how "normal" masculinity constantly tilts toward fear of women and homosexuality.
