N2  - Quentin Tarantino et le (post)féminisme. Politiques du genre dans Boulevard de la mort    The release of Quentin Tarantino's sixth film, Death Proof, relaunched the debate on the politics of gender representation in his work. The film has been praised as a feminist film by some critics, while being blamed by others as another sexualization of the violence against women. In the midst of this debate, the director avoided taking side by entrenching himself in an "ironic posture" by which he could reproduce structures of objectivation. In this article, we will analyze Tarantino's "postmodern sexism", which consists in paying an hommage to 1970's exploitation films while simultaneously exploits the feminist culture by surfing on a somewhat depoliticizing "postfeminist" cultural wave.<p />
