Their female protagonists were strong, independent, and sophisticated. Here, Stanley Cavell names this new genre of American film--\"the comedy of remarriage\"--and examines seven classic movies for their cinematic techniques and for such varied themes as feminism, liberty, and interdependence. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIncluded are \u003ci\u003eAdam's Rib\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Awful Truth\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBringing Up Baby\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHis Girl Friday\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eIt Happened One Night\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Lady Eve\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Philadelphia Story\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach of the seven chapters that follow contains an account of my experience of a film made in Hollywood between 1934 and 1949.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 296\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.81 x 8.68 x 5.98 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 15, 1984\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44434447794278,"sku":"9780674739062","price":73.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/8I6SH39K8M9780674739062.webp?v=1770457841","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/pursuits-of-happiness-the-hollywood-comedy-of-remarriage-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
