A (belated) Call for Papers (not listed on the SCMS Forum)
SOCIETY FOR CINEMA AND MEDIA STUDIES
March 4-7, 2004, Atlanta, Georgia
Stardom and the Discourse of Globalization
This panel explores the manner in which film stars function as multivalent
signs within international co-productions, as they both bear the 'trace' of
their regional/national origin, while also activating denotations specific
to their casting in individual film productions. How is the meaning invested
in star 'aura' redefined outside of a national cinema context? For example,
how might Juliet Binoche or Catherine Deneuve have come to represent a
certain quality of Frenchness or of French femininity or certain moments in
French history, and how is that meaning unsettled or redefined through the
forces of globalization and international cinema?
