Rethinking the Femme Fatale in Film Noir: Ready for Her Close-Up

Autor J. Grossman
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 oct 2009
In the context of nineteenth-century Victorinoir and close readings of original-cycle film noir, Julie Grossman argues that the presence of the "femme fatale" figure, as she is understood in film criticism and popular culture, is drastically over-emphasized and has helped to sustain cultural obsessions with "bad" women.

- G. A. Foster, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Choice
'Rethinking the Femme Fatale poses important questions for feminist work on noir, underlining how the style also remains a contested and rewarding critical terrain.'
