Prostitution in Hollywood Films

Résumé du livre

Many performers have found their most challenging and award-winning roles playing prostitutes on camera, from Helen Hayes (The Sin of Madelon Claudet) to Richard Gere (American Gigolo). This comprehensive filmography with mini-essays, a la James Robert Parish, spans eight decades. Each entry includes full cast and credits, production information, reviews, and an analysis of the movie and its stars, with an essay blending critical commentary and a synopsis of the film.
