'You're a Triple Imposter, I've Never Seen Anything Like It'
Researchers investigating Scarlett Johansson’s films and image have neglected an essential strand of the star’s career. Scholars have mostly demonstrated no interest in Johansson’s film noirs. In this article, I offer one step forward in correcting this oversight. Johansson’s four noir roles point to a larger tendency in her film output: the noirs firmly position Johansson as an A-list actress with a specific type of star vehicle. In her noirs an…
The genuine personality of our favorite stars’
In this article, I assess French-Canadian and Métis star Ariel Rebel's performance in the docu-porn Threesome (2015). There, Rebel details her biography, then a ménage à trois experience. This leads her to masturbate. The film blurs documentary and fiction: her fictional sex act disrupts the anecdote. Rather than address this rupture, users' comments praise Rebel's storytelling and she responds in turn. Trending fetishes as indicators of a public…

Reality Check
173 BOOKS IN REVIEW mainstream literary recognition has the potential to weaken Dick’s status as a subcultural icon, just as the film adaptations often dilute the more radical and unusual aspects of their source material. Despite the claims of the zine editors, therefore, Sandner’s collection seems to show that readers are drawn to Dick’s works for a variety of reasons and that they do not necessarily share the same critical methods or interpreta…

We live in the past with Kari
In this article, I consider the role that private memories play in researching historical media objects. I argue for the inclusion of embodied and personal investments in scholarly research. I back this claim by outlining my methods in studying mainstream online heteroporn. Contemporary film theories of the senses can be employed in researching media objects, particularly for older media such as ‘vintage’ online porn. I articulate the history of …

636 SCIENCE FICTION STUDIES, VOLUME 46 (2019) ecological emergency, and Idema does a great service in highlighting their work, summarizing it clearly and elegantly, and juxtaposing it with the sf texts that are his main concern. All in all, Stages of Transmutation is a valuable book, not only for its new readings of important sf texts, but also for the way that it restores the importance of scientific speculation in sf without privileging the red…

While its treatment of sf is, as noted, at times a bit hazy and decontextualized, there is little doubt that the volume makes an important contribution to the study of nuclear war in fiction and will thus be highly useful for sf scholars interested in that topic.—Rob Latham, Twentynine Palms No Human Error. James Fenwick, ed. U…
One dollar gets you in!’
In this article, with the aid of film and media theories, I provide an overview of ‘solo girl’ pornography, a category of mainstream heterosexual porn with online ubiquity. I discuss the historical relevance of this subgenre in specifically technological and affective terms, taking a cue from Susanna Paasonen’s work on tactile engagements with online pornography. Solo girl performances are preserved in still images, videos, and webcams and consis…
