5.0 out of 5 stars
wonderful book on art deco and cinéma,
By
This review is from: Designing Women (Film and Culture Series) (Paperback)
A wonderful book on the relation between film and the Arte deco style, especially in regards to the female icons in cinema representing this unique form of expression. The chapter on the Divine Garbo was particularly fascinating, in describing Garbo the actress as an Art deco icon in relation to the envrironnement of her films, not only the decors which represent the Art deco trend of her films but also the philosophy and ideas of this trend which she seems to represent. The book gave us a burning desire to watch again and again all those wonderful movies (with Garbo Woman of Affairs, The kiss, The Torrent, The single Standard, with Rogers and Astaire and many others) and to realise the richness of the Art deco style and the power of the cinema as a medium of communication.
