Women in Film Noir by E. Ann Kaplan

Women in Film Noir

E. Ann Kaplan

Published in 1978, the first edition of this text assembled scholars and critics committed to understanding the cinema in terms of gender, sexuality, politics, psychoanalysis and semiotics. This later 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.
