| Abstract (English): |
American cinema is imbued with stereotypical representations of various ethnic and racial groups, but of the many stereotypes and misrepresentations that plague Hollywood those of the Muslim world and its inhabitants have ostensibly been the most damaging and resilient. Ever since the camera began to crank, Hollywood has propagated Arabs and Muslims in exotic terms. The Arab/Muslim appears as an unkempt, uncivilized, and violent terrorist character in over thousand movies. This article analyzes what promotes the ubiquitous negative image of Arabs and Muslims, where it comes from, and why it persists in American cinema and attempts to show how the American cultural fear of the ‘Other’ (the Other being that who challenges the United States national ideology) has resulted in the creation of the dangerous ‘Arab Other’ in American motion picture industry.

| Abstract (French): |
Le cinéma Américain est imprégné de représentations stéréotypées de divers groupes ethniques et raciaux, mais les nombreux stéréotypes et fausses représentations qui empoisonnent Hollywood sont ceux du monde musulman et de ses habitants ont ostensiblement été les plus dommageables et les plus résistants. Depuis le début de Hollywood entreprise, Le cinéma Américain fait paraitre les Arabes et les Musulmans en tant exotiques. L'Arabe apparaît comme un personnage terroriste grossier, barbare et violent dans plus d'un millier de films. Cet article analyse ce qui promeut l'image négative omniprésente des Arabes et des Musulmans, d'où elle vient, et pourquoi elle persiste et continue toujours a apparaitre dans l'industrie cinématographique Américaine.

| Abstract (Arabic): |
تعد السینما الأمریكیة ملیئة بالصور النمطیة لمختلف المجموعات الدینیة و العرقیة. من بین كل الصور و التحریفات التي تملئ ھولیود تعد تلك الخاصة بالعالم الإسلامي و سكانھ الأكثر ضررا. منذ أن بدأ التصویر و الإنتاج السینیماتوغرافي في الظھور، أظھرت ھولیود العربي على أنھ شخصیة إرھابیة وبربریة وعنیفة في معظم الأفلام. تتطرق ھذه المقالة إلى ما یروج ھذه الصور السلبیة عن العرب و المسلمین، من أین تأتي، و لماذا تستمر في الظھور في السینما الأمریكیة. حیث تحاول إظھار كیف أن الخوف من الأخر أدى إلى خلق شخصیة العربي الخطیر في السینما الأمریكیة.
