Movies about Hollywood, movies where someone appears "as himself," movies-within-movies, movies that play with genre conventions or comment on the phenomenon of stardom, are all fertile territory. We're particularly interested in older movies, cartoons, silent films, foreign films, shorts and documentaries, and how this kind of recursion showed up in anecdotes, still photographs, fan magazines, etc. We hope for thoughtful brief essays rather than scattershot references. Please avoid Mel Brooks movies unless you have some stunning insights.
