By analyzing changes in the star system and by exploring the careers of individual stars-Wallace Reid, Rudolph Valentino, and Mabel Normand among them-Mark Lynn Anderson shows how the era's celebrity culture shaped public ideas about personality and human conduct and played a pivotal role in the emergent human sciences of psychology, anthropology, and sociology. Anderson looks at motion picture stars who embodied various forms of deviance-narcotic addiction, criminality, sexual perversion, and racial indeterminacy. He considers how the studios profited from popularizing ideas about deviance, and how the debates generated by the early Hollywood scandals continue to affect our notions of personality, sexuality, and public morals. 606 $aMotion pictures$xSocial aspects$zUnited States 606 $aPopular culture$zUnited States 606 $aMotion picture industry$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aMotion picture actors and actresses$zUnited States 606 $aCelebrities$zUnited States 615 0$aMotion pictures$xSocial aspects 615 0$aPopular culture 615 0$aMotion picture industry$xHistory 615 0$aMotion picture actors and actresses 615 0$aCelebrities 676 $a384/.80973 700 $aAnderson$b Mark Lynn$f1960-$01707662 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910813465603321 996 $aTwilight of the idols$94096090 997 $aUNINA
