Beschreibung:
Amelie Hastie is Associate Professor of Film and Digital Media at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and a member of the Camera Obscura editorial collective.
"In Amelie Hastie's meditative and original book, the era of silent film speaks through the writings and collections of the women who made the movies--stars, directors, writers--some forgotten, most remembered for their images, not their words. Hastie models her approach to writing and theorizing film history on the novel ways her subjects themselves made history: loving attention to the fleeting and the fragmentary illuminates theories of female agency within mass-mediated modernity."--Patricia White, author of "Uninvited: Classical Hollywood Cinema and Lesbian Representability "
