| Description | Collection of essays on cinematic motherhood. This publication explores this widespread cultural fascination with motherhood through analyses of mothers in contemporary U.S. film, including both mainstream and independent cinematic representations. The contributors draw on a variety of critical approaches to consider the spectacle of pregnancy, mother-daughter relationships, mothers as predators, narcissists, and absent victims, and the ways in which cultural anxieties are displaced and projected onto marginalized mothers in films such as 'Fargo', 'Transamerica', 'Gas, Food, Lodging', 'Ordinary People', and Scream. |
