Combining a detailed analysis of individual musicals with an in-depth consideration of racial and gender issues, Susan Smith examines the rich interactions that occur between music, performance and narrrative, as well as the use of the female voice and the female singer in certain 'Pygmalion'/'Svengali'-style narratives. Films studied include Show Boat (1936, 1951), Cabin in the Sky (1943), Singin' in the Rain (1952), A Star is Born (1954), West Side Story (1961), My Fair Lady (1964) and Funny Girl (1968)."--Publisher's description. 000313247 650_0 $$aMusical films$$xHistory and criticism. 000313247 650_0 $$aSex role in motion pictures. 000313247 650_0 $$aRace in motion pictures. 000313247 650_0 $$aVoice in motion pictures. 000313247 830_0 $$aShort cuts (London, England) ;$$v26. 000313247 85200 $$bgen$$hML2054$$i.S65$$i2005 000313247 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:313247$$pGLOBAL_SET 000313247 980__ $$aBIB 000313247 980__ $$aBOOK 000313247 994__ $$aC0$$bISE
