With "Contesting Tears", Cavell demonstrates that a contrasting genre, which he calls "the melodrama of the unknown woman," shares a surprising number and weave of concerns with those comedies. Cavell provides close readings of four melodramas he finds definitive of the genre: "Letter from an Unknown Woman", "Gaslight", "Now Voyager", and "Stella Dallas".Country/Region of Manufacture: USGenre: Films & TVSubtitle: The Hollywood Melodrama of the Unknown WomanItem Height: 23mmItem Length: 16mmItem Width: 2mmItem Weight: 454gRelease Year: 1997 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
