| Description: | This volume offers eight interdisciplinary readings to the films of Sophia Ford Coppola, analyzing her oeuvre with a focus on her treatment of masculinity, sexual politics, bodies, and love. The films of Sofia Coppola have moved and entranced audiences with her minimalist style, moody soundscapes, and commitment to center the lives and experiences of women and girls. A Critical Companion to Sofia Coppola explores the profound implications of her stories, images, and convictions in a comprehensive study of all eight of her major works. Drawing from a wide range of disciplines, each chapter offers a fresh, interdisciplinary reading of one of Coppola’s films and her treatment of core themes like masculinity, sexual politics, bodies, and love. Rigorously researched and unique, the arguments presented within this volume shed new light on one of the most important women filmmakers in film history. |
