商品簡介
Motivated by her early dreams of becoming a scientist and fascination with B sci-fi films, Noonan (English, Xavier U. of Louisiana) examines representations of women scientists in ten such 1950s films. Through the lens of feminist theory, she analyzes how characters such as Dr. Lisa Van Horne in Rocketship X-M (1950), were cultural indicators pivotal to the genre. The book includes photos, a filmography, and information on the father figures and love interests of these female leads. Annotation c2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
