Edited by E. Deidre Pribram, the volume brings together influential scholars who argue that the act of spectatorship is never neutral, challenging the dominant psychoanalytic and semiotic frameworks that had long privileged the male gaze in screen theory. The contributors uncover the complex ways in which female audiences negotiate pleasure, identity, and representation across a range of popular genres and media texts. Written in an academic yet accessible tone, the collection illustrates how gender fundamentally shapes both the production of meaning on screen and the lived experience of watching. A vital resource for students and scholars of film theory, cultural studies, and gender studies, it remains an essential touchstone in the ongoing critical conversation about women and visual media.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887875731675,"sku":"2026770001720-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/a05bc6e0-e94f-48fe-803e-fbc29fcd89ab.png?v=1781747402","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026770001720-secondhand-female-spectators-looking-at-film-and-television","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
