This book explores movies by filmmakers Amy Heckerling, Nora Ephron, Nancy Meyers, Catherine Hardwicke, Sofia Coppola, Kimberly Peirce, Kathryn Bigelow and Greta Gerwig, including many which are still critically neglected or derided, seeing them as offering a new understanding of genre filmmaking. That is, like many other contemporary films but in a striking proportion within the smaller set of mainstream movies by women, this body of work revels in a heightened genre status that allows its authors to simultaneously address ‘intellectual’ cinephilic pleasures and bodily-emotive ones. Arguing through close analysis that these films demonstrate the inseparability of such strategies of engagement in contemporary genre cinema, .Heightened Genre .reclaims women’s mainstream filmmaking for feminism through a recalibration of genre theory itself. . | | 出版日期 | Book 2021 | | 关键词 | Women Directors; Feminist Film Criticism; Women Filmmakers; Hollywood Cinema; Genre Theory | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-70994-5 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-70996-9 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-70994-5 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2021 |
