Performance in the age of mechanical reproduction -- pt. 2. Star performances -- pt. 3. Film as a performance text.In this richly detailed study, James Naremore focuses on the work of film acting, showing what players contribute to movies. Ranging from the earliest short subjects of Charles Chaplin to the contemporary features of Robert DeNiro, he develops a useful means of analyzing performance in the age of mechanical reproduction; at the same time, he reveals the ideological implications behind various approaches to acting, and suggests ways that behavior on the screen can be linked to the presentation of self in society.Naremore's discussion of such figures as Lillian Gish, Marlene Dietrich, James Cagney, and Cary Grant will interest the specialist and the general reader alike, helping to establish standards and methods for future writing about performers and their craft.Motion picture actingMotion picturesUnited StatesElectronic books.Motion picture acting.Motion pictures791.43/028Naremore James456838MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910457269503321Acting in the Cinema1677906UNINA
