This relationship has made our entertainment more political and our political leadership more aligned with the world of movies and movie stars. In The Leading Man, Burton W. Peretti explores the development of the cinematic presidential image. He sets the scene in chapter 1 to show us how the chief executive, beginning with George Washington, was positioned to assume the mantle of cultural leading man. As an early star figure in the young republic, the president served as a symbol of national survival and wish fulfillment. The president, as head of government and head of state, had the potential to portray a powerful and charismatic role. At the center of the story are the fourteen presidents of the cinematic era, from Herbert Hoover to Barack Obama. Since the 1920's, the president, like the lead actor in a movie, has been given the central place on the political stage under the intense glare of the spotlight. Like other American men, future presidents were taught by lead movie actors how to look and behave, what to say, and how to say it. Some, like John F. Kennedy and Richard M. Nixon, took particular care to learn from the grooming, gestures, movements, and vocal inflections of film actors and applied these lessons to their political careers. Ronald Reagan was a professional actor. Bill Clinton, a child of the post-World War II Baby Boom, may have been the biggest movie fan of all presidents. Others, including Lyndon Johnson, showed little interest in movies and their lessons for politicians. Presidents and other politicians have been criticized for cheapening their offices by hiring image and advertising consultants and staging their public events. Peretti analyzes the evolution and the significance of this interaction to trace the convoluted history of the presidential cinematic image. He demonstrates how movies have been the main force in promoting appearance and drama over the substance of governing, and how Americans' lives today may be dominated by entertainment at the expense of their engagement as citizens. 606 $aHistorical films$zUnited States$xHistory and criticism 606 $aMotion pictures and history 606 $aMotion pictures$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States 606 $aPresidents in motion pictures 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aHistorical films$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aMotion pictures and history. 615 0$aMotion pictures$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aPresidents in motion pictures. 676 $a791.43/658 700 $aPeretti$b Burton W$g(Burton William),$f1961-$01026589 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462361803321 996 $aThe leading man$92441569 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00944nam2 22002893i 450 001 UBO0255821 005 20211210072439.0 010 $a8803001085 100 $a20120912d1980 ||||0itac50 ba 101 | $aita 102 $ait 181 1$6z01$ai $bxxxe 182 1$6z01$an 200 0 $a1$fHugh Davson 205 $a2. ed. italiana sulla 4. americana 210 $aFirenze$cUSES$d\1980! 215 $aXV, 487 p.$cill.$d25 cm. 461 1$1001UBO0034675$12001 $aFisiologia generale$fHugh Davson$v1 606 $aFisiologia$2FIR$3NAPC000992$9I 676 $a571$9FISIOLOGIA E SOGGETTI CONNESSI$v14 801 3$aIT$bIT-NA0079$c20120912 850 $aIT-BN0095 912 $aUBO0255821 950 2$aBiblioteca Centralizzata di Ateneo$cv. 1-2$d 01SALA 571 DAV fi(1$e 0104 9000005245 B (1 v. 1$fT $h20120912$i20120912 977 $a 01 996 $a1$961339 997 $aUNISANNIO LEADER 01525nam0 22003373i 450 001 UBO3588051 005 20251003044424.0 010 $a9781412927925 100 $a20091217d2007 ||||0itac50 ba 101 | $aeng 102 $aus 181 1$6z01$ai $bxxxe 182 1$6z01$an 200 1 $aDesigning and conducting mixed methods research$fJohn W.
