The male chauvinism or feminism present in the films of American director Howard Hawks has been an aspect about what important scholars and film critics have written: from Molly Haskell to Laura Mulvey as well as Robin Wood or Jeffrey Meyers. Based on the analysis of several of his key films, which are placed inside the three genres that Hawks most worked throughout his career: comedy, adventure and western films, we explain that an illusion of breaking the gender roles is produced on these films. Men and women show features that, at first, lead us to think that the director breaks with these roles. However, a closer look reveals that it is an illusion in the sense that it doesn’t propose non stereotyped men and women
