Download or read book Fallen Idols written by Nigel Blundell and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2018-11-30 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Its a scandal! How often we use that phrase and what a catalogue of sins it covers. Thats what this book is all about. It is literally a catalogue of sins committed by some of the most celebrated names on the planet.Within these covers are startling stories of scandals during a century when screen idols seemed to vie with each other in outraging public decency. It was an age when fan fever was at its height and an endless supply of shocking revelations emerged to fuel the frenzy.Because of the perpetrators superstar status, the shame of exposure was often heightened, not only wrecking reputations but often harming careers and, at least, ensuring very public humiliation.The lessons learned from these cases of celebrity scandal (though often, it seems, not by the celebrities themselves) is that the bigger the star, the harder the fall and that deceit and intrigue so often turn hard-won fame into instant infamy.

Download or read book Divas on Screen written by Mia Mask and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2010-10-01 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This insightful study places African American women's stardom in historical and industrial contexts by examining the star personae of five African American women: Dorothy Dandridge, Pam Grier, Whoopi Goldberg, Oprah Winfrey, and Halle Berry. Interpreting each woman's celebrity as predicated on a brand of charismatic authority, Mia Mask shows how these female stars have ultimately complicated the conventional discursive practices through which blackness and womanhood have been represented in commercial cinema, independent film, and network television. Mask examines the function of these stars in seminal yet underanalyzed films. She considers Dandridge's status as a sexual commodity in films such as Tamango, revealing the contradictory discourses regarding race and sexuality in segregation-era American culture. Grier's feminist-camp performances in sexploitation pictures Women in Cages and The Big Doll House and her subsequent blaxploitation vehicles Coffy and Foxy Brown highlight a similar tension between representing African American women as both objectified stereotypes and powerful, self-defining icons. Mask reads Goldberg's transforming habits in Sister Act and The Associate as representative of her unruly comedic routines, while Winfrey's daily television performance as self-made, self-help guru echoes Horatio Alger narratives of success. Finally, Mask analyzes Berry's meteoric success by acknowledging the ways in which Dandridge's career made Berry's possible.

Book Synopsis The Cambridge Companion to Shakespeare on Film by : Russell Jackson
Download or read book The Cambridge Companion to Shakespeare on Film written by Russell Jackson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2000-10-26 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Film adaptations of Shakespeare's plays are increasingly popular and now figure prominently in the study of his work and its reception. This lively Companion is a collection of critical and historical essays on the films adapted from, and inspired by, Shakespeare's plays. An international team of leading scholars discuss Shakespearean films from a variety of perspectives: as works of art in their own right; as products of the international movie industry; in terms of cinematic and theatrical genres; and as the work of particular directors from Laurence Olivier and Orson Welles to Franco Zeffirelli and Kenneth Branagh. They also consider specific issues such as the portrayal of Shakespeare's women and the supernatural. The emphasis is on feature films for cinema, rather than television, with strong coverage of Hamlet, Richard III, Macbeth, King Lear and Romeo and Juliet. A guide to further reading and a useful filmography are also provided.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Get all five Hollywood to Olympus romances in one great set. Screen Idol If actor Chris Peck plays his cards right, acting as the slave-for-a-day could earn him the leading roll in an upcoming movie, but the winner wants nothing to do with him. Sydney Richardson should have locked the door when a Greek god appeared on her front step at sunrise. After months of work to ensure her fundraiser goes off without a hitch, she can't afford to waste time with a TV hunk, no matter how good he looks in a toga. Chris is captivated by Sydney and he promises to put her charity efforts over the top. However, just when he convinces Sydney they could have a real chance together, the movie's producers offer him an audition that means leaving Sydney in the lurch. The king of the gods has until sunset to prove to his new off-screen love interest that Hollywood magic and true-life romance can co-exist. Drama Queen Layla Andrews isn't really a bitch – she just plays one on television. For the last year, she's acted like one while she was forced to serve probation for something she didn't do. Now she's done her time and she's ready to start living again. Russ Vukovich, the show's fight coordinator, had been attracted to Layla since the first time he saw her, but as they gets closer, he also sees more of what she hides beneath the mask she wears. As Layla and Russ try to navigate their new relationship, families, danger, and secrets work against them at every turn. Can they find a true happily-ever-after when they are surrounded by lies? Leading Man Olympus heartthrob Nick Thurston is a leading man with a problem. His new play opens in a month and when it comes to the pivotal waltz scene, he can't lead. Ashleigh Jessup needs to find a new building to take her booming dance studio to the next level. She doesn't have time for a private student, but she'll make an exception to earn extra money for her down payment. Things heat up on the dance floor and between the sheets, but when past relationships intrude on the present, Nick and Ashleigh must decide if their future is worth a fight. It Girl Sean Glenn fell for Caitlin the first time he saw her, almost a year ago. Now that the rising star is working on his show, he could finally have a shot with her, if it weren't for his well-known history as a player. Entertainer Caitlin Kelly has spent the last decade taking every job she could get. When her new role on a hit show brings fame and a potential real-life love interest, she has to make some serious choices about her priorities. While Caitlin is torn about decisions the spotlight forces on her, especially those regarding Sean, the actor is suffering his own problems with stardom. Sean finds himself in a stalker's sights, and the safest place for Caitlin may be far away from him. Is love strong enough to keep them together? Action Hero Nobody in Hollywood takes cable television star Glinda Crawford seriously, and that's not going to change with her next movie, which has descended into a cheesy flick about rabid, cyborg, panda assassins. Mike Mosley has leveraged his teen-age TV heartthrob days into a successful adult acting career, but the first week on the set of his new movie with his Olympus co-star Glinda has him second-guessing everything: his plans, his single status, and just how dangerous robot pandas can be. When script shenanigans spill into the real world, the attraction Glinda and Mike have been faking turns into a hot, real-life adventure. If they can survive this movie, they can survive anything together. However, the shocking finale surprises them both.
