The theme of female transformation informs the Hollywood representation of femininity from the studio era to the present. Whether it occurs physically, emotionally, or on some other level, transformation allows female protagonists to negotiate their own complex desires and to resist the compulsory marriage plot. 000438002 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000438002 650_0 $$aFemininity in motion pictures. 000438002 650_0 $$aWomen in motion pictures. 000438002 650_0 $$aMotion pictures$$zUnited States. 000438002 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aGreven, David.$$tRepresentations of femininity in American genre cinema.$$dNew York : Palgrave Macmillan, 2011$$z9780230112513$$w(DLC) 2010037447$$w(OCoLC)664839199 000438002 8520_ $$bacq 000438002 85280 $$bebk$$hProquest Ebook Central 000438002 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=686637$$zOnline Access 000438002 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:438002$$pGLOBAL_SET 000438002 980__ $$aEBOOK 000438002 980__ $$aBIB 000438002 982__ $$aEbook 000438002 983__ $$aOnline
