5.0 out of 5 stars A particularly comprehensive study of representation
De Lauretis's book is one of the most influential in the field of feminist film theory. An incredibly comprehensive study, it engages deeply notions of desire, fantasy, and identification. It is useful as both a theoretical and a political text, weaving a personal struggle with feminism and film practice throughout her semiotic analysis of the process of film.

3.0 out of 5 stars Alice Doesn't
Got the book as a requirement for my college English course. Only read one chapter because I needed to find a few quotes for a research paper. Time did not permit to read the entire book. Wish I could have read the entire book to fully understand the chapter I had read. Nonetheless, it seems interesting...
