Produktbeschreibung
Diana Dors was not only Britain's most successful sex symbol of the 1950s but also a popular entertainer who remained a major celebrity until her death in 1984. Diana Dors: Film Star and Actor is primarily a celebration of her film acting skills, providing detailed analysis of her performances in a selection of films from across the star's five-decade career, including The Unholy Wife, Berserk!, and The Pied Piper. In addition to investigating Dors' versatility as an actress by paying close attention to the different ways in which she uses her voice and body, poses and gestures, facial expressions and looks in specific moments from her movies, Shingler also discusses the performance of sexuality, gender and age, while considering her appeal for male and female, gay and straight audiences. Martin Shingler is an independent scholar, freelance writer, editor and researcher. He was previously Lecturer in Media & Cultural Studies at Staffordshire University, and Senior Lecturer in Radio & Film Studies at University of Sunderland. In addition to co-editing the BFI Film Stars series (2012-2019), he has published two monographs, When Warners Brought Broadway to Hollywood, 1923-39 (2018) and Star Studies: A Critical Guide (2012).
