Description
"The first edition of Women in Film Noir from 1978 assembled a group of scholars and critics committed to understanding the cinema in terms of gender, sexuality, politics, psychoanalysis and semiotics. This 1998 edition is expanded to include further essays which reflect the renewed interest in Film Noir. Exploring neo-noir, postmodernism and other contemporary trends, new essays offer readings of, among others, Bound and Basic Instinct, broadening the scope of the book to include questions of race and homosexuality". --Publisher.
