Softcover in burgundy pictorial wraps. Light wear. 271 pp. From the back panel: "This pioneering book introduces a largely unremarked dimension of film, 'the feminine,' which cannot be reduced to women's experience or to men's projections onto women...Spanning seven decades--from Pride and Prejudice, Notorious, and Letter from an Unknown Woman to Monsoon Wedding, Brokeback Mountain, and The Lives of Others--the movies selected for particular study here make it clear that the feminine is at home in the movies, and that when she appears it is to appeal to our sensibilities as well as our sense."
