Summary:	"The Star System: Hollywood's Production of Popular Identities examines the development and changing organisation of the star system in the American film industry. Tracing the popularity of star performers from the early 'cinema of attractions' to the internet universe, Paul McDonald explores the ways in which the American film industry has made and sold its stars. Through focusing on particular historical periods, the key conditions influencing the star system in silent cinema, the studio era and the New Hollywood are discussed and illustrated by case studies of Mary Pickford, Bette Davis, James Cagney, Julia Roberts, Tom Cruise and Will Smith."--Jacket.  Read more...
