Soft cover. Condizione: As New. No Jacket. 1st Edition. IT'S ALL IN THE DELIVERY: PREGNANCY IN AMERICAN FILM AND TELEVISION COMEDY, Victoria Sturtevant, softcover, illustrated, 2024. BOOK CONDITION: as new. The text block is in fine condition with no tears, marks, or dog ears. There is no bookplate or signature of a previous owner. Not a remainder or library book. The wraps are in near fine condition. 9 x 6, 224 pages, 13 ounces XX [From the back cover] Some of the most groundbreaking moments in American film and TV comedy have centered on pregnancy, from Lucille Ball's real-life pregnancy on I Love Lucy to the abortion plot on Maude; Murphy Brown's controversial single motherhood; Arnold Schwarzenegger's pregnancy in Junior; and the third-trimester stand-up special Ali Wong: Baby Cobra. In the first book-length study of pregnancy in popular comedy, Victoria Sturtevant examines the slow evolution of pregnancy tropes during the years of the Production Code; the sexual revolution and changing norms around nonmarital pregnancy in the 1960s and '70s; and the emphasis on biological clocks, infertility, adoption, and abortion from the 1980s to now. Across this history, popular media have offered polite evasions and sentimentality instead of real candor about the physical and social complexities of pregnancy. But comedy has often led the way in puncturing these clichés, pointing an irreverent and satiric lens at the messy and sometimes absurd work of gestation. Ultimately, Sturtevant argues that comedy can reveal the distortions and lies that treat pregnancy as simple and natural "women's work," misrepresentations that rest at the heart of contemporary attacks on reproductive rights in the US. XX Well written, clearly argued, full of fascinating ideas and thoughtful analysis, IT'S ALL IN THE DELIVERY indeed delivers a powerful and timely set of conclusions. Conceptually strong and well structured, with each chapter building thoughtfully upon its predecessor, the book covers a wide range of textual, narrative, socio-cultural and political interventions into pregnancy in American film and TV comedy that will appeal to scholars and reproductive rights activists alike (MOYA LUCKETT, author of Cinema and Community: Progressivism, Exhibition, and Film Culture in Chicago, 1907-1977). XX VICTORIA STURTEVANT is an associate professor of film and media studies at the University of Oklahoma. She is the author of A Great Big Girl Like Me: The Films of Marie Dressler and coeditor of Hysterical! Women in American Comedy.

How changing depictions of pregnancy in comedy from the start of the twentieth century to the present show an evolution in attitudes toward women's reproductive roles and rights. Some of the most groundbreaking moments in American film and TV comedy have centered on pregnancy, from Lucille Ball's real-life pregnancy on I Love Lucy, to the abortion plot on Maude; Murphy Brown's controversial single motherhood; Arnold Schwarzenegger's pregnancy in Junior; or the third-trimester stand-up special Ali Wong: Baby Cobra.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In this study of Marie Dressler, MGM's most profitable movie star in the early 1930s, Victoria Sturtevant analyzes Dressler's use of her body to challenge Hollywood's standards for leading ladies. At five feet seven inches tall and two hundred pounds, Dressler was never considered the popular "delicate beauty," often playing ugly ducklings, old maids, doting mothers, and imperious dowagers. However, Dressler's body, her fearless physicality, and her athletic slapstick routines commanded the screen. Although an unlikely movie star, Dressler represented for Depression-era audiences a sign of abundance and generosity in a time of scarcity. This premier analysis of her body of work explores how Dressler refocused the generic frame of her films beyond the shallow problems of the rich and beautiful, instead dignifying the marginalized, the elderly, women, and the poor. Sturtevant inteprets the meanings of Dressler's body through different genres, venues, and historical periods by looking at her vaudeville career, her transgressive representation of an "unruly" yet sexual body in Emma and Christopher Bean, ideas of the body politic in the films Politics and Prosperity, and Dressler as a mythic body in Min and Bill and Tugboat Annie. A captivating study of one of classic Hollywood's most fascinating bodies Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
