The contemporary audience's engagement with the experience of these actresses unsettles the traditional model of narcissistic identification, which divides the off-screen spectator from his/her on-screen ideal. Exploring the fan's desire for a material connection to the performer - as well as the star's own dialogue between embodied experience and idealized image - Beyond the Looking Glass traces on- and off-screen representations of narcissistic femininity in classical Hollywood through studies of stars like Greta Garbo, Ava Gardner, and Marilyn Monroe. Merging historical and theoretical concerns, with particular attention to the resonance of golden-age Hollywood in new media, this book explores the movie screen as a medium of shared experience between spectator and star. --Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Women in the motion picture industry $z Los Angeles. $z Los Angeles. 650 0 $a Motion picture actors and actresses $z Los Angeles. $z Los Angeles. 650 0 $a Motion picture studios $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Motion picture audiences $z United States. 650 0 $a Women in motion pictures. 650 7 $a Motion picture actors and actresses. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01027096 650 7 $a Motion picture audiences. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01027116 650 7 $a Motion picture studios. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01027256 650 7 $a Women in motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01177931 650 7 $a Women in the motion picture industry. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01178040 651 7 $a California $z Los Angeles. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204540 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a 1900 - 1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180131020818.0 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20160331010927.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A81719A6F2F211E49475ABD7DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
