At the picture show : small-town audiences and the creation of movie fan culture / Kathryn H. Fuller London: University Press of Virginia, 1996.
Call No: 410.1:465.2 FULAuthor: Fuller, Kathryn H. Source: US/UKPlace: Charlottesville; LondonPublisher: University Press of VirginiaPubDate: 1996PhysDes: 248 p. : 23 cmSubject: AUDIENCE RECEPTION ; AUDIENCES ; AUDIENCES USA ; FAN MAGAZINES ; EXHIBITION ; EXHIBITION. USA ; EXHIBITION OF SILENT FILMS ; NICKELODEON Summary: Although the transformation of the movies into big-time entertainment had multiple sources, Kathryn Fuller argues that ultimately the maturation of the film industry depended on the support of both urban and rural middle-class audiences. Providing the fullest portrait to date of the small-town audience’s hanging habits and desires, At the Picture Show demonstrates for the first time how a fan culture emerged in the United States, and it enriches our understanding of mass media’s relationship to early twentieth-century American society.
