second-wave feminism. The films Joe, Raging Bull, Falling Down, Cobb, God Bless America, Joker, and Clint Eastwood's performances in Dirty Harry and Gran Torino have been described as an exploration of the angry white man. In particular, the protagonist of Falling Down (a divorced, laid-off defense worker who descends via chance and choice into a spiral of increasing rage and violence) was widely reported upon as a representative of the stereotype. The character Archie Bunker from the TV sitcoms All in the Family and Archie Bunker's Place "turned the angry white male into a cultural icon", according to CBS News. Walter White in the television series Breaking Bad has also been described as an "angry white male".
