Nicholas Baer, Historical Turns: Weimar Cinema and the Crisis of Historicism
Jacqueline Onassis and the Look-Alike
In Ownership of the Image, Bernard Edelman shows how nineteenth-century French law originally would not extend legal protection to the photograph because it was machine-produced, thus denying it protection as the work of an author-creator, and how the law later reversed its position, maintaining that the photographer did have an author&s;s right in the photograph. But the author was admitted at this stage, Edelman says, on condition that he not m…

Everyday Strangeness: Robert Ripley's International Oddities as Documentary Attractions
My alternative title is "Everyday Estrangement," emphasizing a very particular aspect of everyday life theory having to do with the critical capacity of the strange. While most theorists of everyday life are concerned with the ordinary and its uses, not all visit the problem of critique; if, like Michel de Certeau, they are interested in critique from below, at the level of ordinary people and ordinary practices, this outburst is diffuse and ofte…

The Scar of Shame: Skin Color and Caste in Black Silent Melodrama
When blacks began to finance and direct their own films in the teens and early 1920s, they consistently produced domestic melodramas. Some of these early productions have racial themes which reorganize the world in such a way that black heritage is rewarded over white paternity; they are schematic renunciations of the prevailing order of things in white American society where, historically, the discovery of black blood meant sudden reversal of fo…
White Privilege and Looking Relations: Race and Gender in Feminist Film Theory
orn in Flames, a feminist science fiction film set ten years after a Social-Democratic revolution in the U.S., provides an abrupt reminder of the place of theory in the context of social change. Toward the end of the film, with the women's takeover of New York communications channels in progress, the voice of theory is heard over the image, insisting that women also need to take over the production of language. Although the film gives credence to…
The Showgirl and the Wolf
Off duty, Tyrone Power, an American pilot enlisted in the British RAF, commandeers a reserved table up front and close to the show at the Regency House, all the better to get a load Betty Grable's singing and dancing. The classic construction of the sequence that follows in Yank in the RA.F. (Twentieth Century-Fox, 1941) is an alternation of shots of Grable in the show with shots of male onlookers either applauding or otherwise indicating enjoyme…
