Criminology and Pop Culture

I personally didn’t like the findacticles.com article. I found it to be long and strung out. Some of it also I couldn’t really follow “these narratives violently enact the centrality of the family, tortured and triumphant”. This was in context of talking about the action thriller genre and how it was centered on families.
