Zones of Anxiety: Movement, Musidora, and the Crime Serials of Louis Feuillade

Detroit: Wayne State University Press. Fine. First Edition. Softcover. [a beautiful, as-new copy: no marks, no wear]. (Contemporary Approaches to Film and Television) Series Trade PB This book "is a wonderful analysis of Louis Feuillade's cinematic serials, which have been an inspiration to filmmakers and other artists throughout the twentieth century. [The author] gives us a fresh approach to Feuillade's work, not only situating it within the context of early French film history, but also within feminist theory and feminist film history. Indeed, [the] book demonstrates why feminist questions of spectatorship, stardom, and film form are central (truncated) to the writing (and rewriting) of film history."
