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 More info

book		The life and opinions of Maf the Dog and of his friend Marilyn Monroe / Andrew O'Hagan London: Faber and Faber, 2010. Call No: 97 OHA Author: O'Hagan, Andrew Source: UK Place: London Publisher: Faber and Faber PubDate: 2010 PhysDes: 279 p. ; 24 cm Subject: LITERATURE AND THE CINEMA; MONROE, MARILYN Summary: In November 1960, Frank Sinatra gave Marilyn Monroe a dog. His name was Maf. He had an instinct for the twentieth century. For politics. For psychoanalysis. For literature. For interior decoration. This is his story. Maf the dog was with Marilyn for the last two years of her life. Not only a picaresque hero himself, he was also a scholar of the adventuring rogue in literature and art, witnessing the rise of America's new liberalism, civil rights, the space race, the New York critics, and was Marilyn Monroe's constant companion. The story of Maf the dog is a hilarious and highly original peek into the life of a complex canine hero - he was very much a real historical figure, with his license and photographs sold at auction along with Marilyn's other person affects. Through the eyes of Maf we're provided with an insight into the life of Monroe herself, and a fascinating take on one of the most extraordinary periods of the twentieth century ISBN: 9780571215997 Donation: donated by Senses of Cinema, 2013 More info

Within these pages is Bogdanovich on Charlie Chaplin, Humphrey Bogart, Audrey Hepburn, James Cagney, John Wayne, Henry Fonda, Marlene Dietrich, Jack Lemmon, Boris Karloff, Dean Martin, Marilyn Monroe, James Stewart, Frank Sinatra, and many more. With an acute and affectionate eye, Bogdanovich shows us Lillian Gish, the first virginal hearth goddess of the silver screen; Marlon Brando, refusing to play the same from one picture to the next, yet ever recognisable as the great actor, in spite of himself; Jerry Lewis, whose goofy comedy represented the nine-year-old in all of us; and Cary Grant, the epitome of screen elegance, benignly aware that in life even he could never live up to his own legend. Bogdanovich captures brilliantly - in their own words and his - the personality, the work, the style and the enduring iconic appeal of America's movie greats. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9780571224319 Donation: James Sabine More info
