Zizek's Lacanian reading of Hollywood

Cory's post on Zizek spurred me to try to find some examples of his writing online.  Since he likes American pop culture, some of his writing is fairly accessible.  Try this article, "The Family Myth in Hollywood", a Lacanian-Marxist reading of recent Hollywood films, like Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code and Michael Crichton's State of Fear.  The article appeared in Cinophile magazine in 2007.
