Heavenly bodies : film stars and society / Richard Dyer London: Routledge, 2004.
Call No: 465.1 DYEAuthor: Dyer, Richard Edition: second editionSource: UKPlace: LondonPublisher: RoutledgePubDate: 2004PhysDes: 210 p. ; 24 cmSubject: SEX IN FILMS ; STARS ; BLACKS AND THE CINEMA. US ; BLACKS IN FILMS ; RACIAL STEREOTYPES IN FILMS ; MONROE, MARILYN ; ROBESON, PAUL ; GARLAND, JUDY Summary: Focusing on the lives and careers of three of the biggest names in Hollywood history – Marilyn Monroe, Paul Robeson and Judy Garland – Dyer details how their screen image was constructed. Through subtle readings of their films and wealth of background material, he goes on to survey the development of each star’s image in relation to particular social groups. Monroe is discussed in the context of 1950s sexuality and the image of woman; Robeson in terms of black identity and different white and black perceptions of it; and Garland as a gay icon. All three are set in the wider context of the social significance of the very idea of stardom.ISBN: 041531027X

White / Richard Dyer London New York: Routledge, 1997.
Call No: 451-054(=2) DYEAuthor: Dyer, Richard Place: London New YorkPublisher: RoutledgePubDate: 1997PhysDes: xv, 256 p. : ill. ; 25 cmSummary: White people are not literally or symbolically white, yet they are called white. What does this mean? In Western media, whites take up the position of ordinariness, not a particular race, just the human race. How is this achieved? White takes these questions as starting points for an examination of the representation of whiteness by whites in Western visual culture. Dyer places this representation within the contexts of Christianity, 'race' and colonialism. In a series of absorbing case studies, he shows the construction of whiteness in the technology of photography and film as part of a wider 'culture of light', discusses heroic white masculinity in muscle-man action cinema, from Tarzan and Hercules to Conan and Rambo; analyses the stifling role of white women in end-of-empire fictions like The Jewel in the Crown and traces the associations of whiteness with death in Falling Down, horror movies and cult dystopian films such as Blade Runner and the Aliens trilogyNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 225-250) and indexISBN: 0415095360; 0415095379 (pbk.)LON: 96011485; 12508275
