Elvis Cinema and Popular Culture
Author: Douglas Brode
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476605483
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
Though Elvis Presley's music is widely credited as starting a sea change in American popular culture, his films are often dismissed as superficial. Beyond the formulaic plotlines and the increasingly weaker songs, however, the films are rich with resonance to the changing times in which they were produced (roughly 1955-1970). They were also a means by which Elvis communicated deeply felt autobiographical material to his fan base, although in the guise of lighthearted escapist fare. This work takes a new stand, maintaining that Elvis's 31 Hollywood features and two documentaries reveal a profound statement from the star and auteur. Analyzing each film in detail and exploring the body of work as a whole, Brode reveals the Elvis persona as a contemporary Candide, attempting to navigate an ever changing social and political landscape.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 959
Book Description
Rejected. Abandoned. Betrayed: When the men of their dreams let them down, can these women learn to trust them again? And how far would their men go to win them back? LOVING YASMINE: BOOK 1 A cynical divorce attorney. A believer in happily ever after. What could possibly go wrong? Robert Carter survived an abusive upbringing from an alcoholic father to become founder and CEO of a globally renowned, billion-dollar medical supply company. Now, he is ready to settle down and raise a houseful of kids to prove to himself that he can be a better father than the one who raised him. But the one woman he desires to make his dreams come true has other ideas about love and marriage. As a little girl, Yasmine Reynolds fantasized about raising a family with Robert, her best friend’s older brother. Now all grown up, and in-demand as one of Boston’s best divorce attorneys money can buy, Yasmine realizes that love and marriage is not the bed of roses she imagined it would be. She becomes even more cynical when a relationship she thought strong enough to weather any storm unravels before her eyes. Is Robert’s unwavering love enough to convince Yasmine that Happily Ever After does exist? Or, will her persistent fears about marriage, and the secret she has been hiding from him, send this hunk of a man tumbling into the arms of another woman? DESIRE’S CHASE: BOOK 2 A second chance at love, or a recipe for disaster? After her older sister committed an unspeakable crime that tainted their family name, Desire Summers has lived her life trying to redeem it. But when Chase, her fiancé’s older brother returns to Evergreen, looking sexier than she remembers, Desire fears that one look into the compelling gray eyes of the man she still loves, and wants, will shatter the good-girl façade she has so carefully crafted. Twelve years ago, bad-boy, Chase Hunter, was humiliated and run out of town by the devious deeds of a business rival. Now, a refined self-made billionaire, he returns to Evergreen to avenge the wrong done against him and win back the love, trust, and respect of the girl he had been forced to leave behind—a girl who has blossomed into a stunningly desirable woman. There is only one problem: she is engaged to his younger brother. Can Chase convince Desire—the only woman he has ever loved—that they belong together, before it is too late, or will pride and circumstance keep them from realizing their dreams and living the life they had planned together, years ago? PLEASING MINDY - BOOK 3 She trusted him. He betrayed her. Is it too late for the truth? Born and raised in England, Galen Carmichael grew up believing that his father died before he was born—because that is what his mother told him. But one phone call and an invitation to visit the United States from an American billionaire half-brother he never knew existed debunks that lie, and changes Galen's life in ways he never would have imagined. The moment he walked into the exclusive boutique where she works, single mother of two, Mindy Marshall, fell hard and fast for the handsome Brit who tells her that his deepest desire in life is to please her. He proves it by treating her like a princess and doting on her young fatherless children. However, when Galen abruptly disappears from Mindy’s life for eight long months, she slowly comes to realize that what a man says, is not always what he means. Can Galen and Mindy find their way back to each other, or will the malicious acts of another, and the shocking revelations of their parents’ pasts forever keep them apart?

SWITCH ON YOUR INNER LIGHT; BRING FORTH YOUR GIFTS. Alonzo Prier, Esquire, leaves his prominent New Jersey Assistant Attorney General job and heads to Washington, D.C. Tracked down by the well-established law firm with the independent federal consulting contract, he’s the best for the business...not just theirs, but the business about the country. Unsavory times! Medicare and Medicaid officials struggling with those social programs’ challenges. Managed Care unhinged by way of HMOs delivering the health and wellness goods, but not really. It was January 2000. Health insurance considerations throughout the land at fever pitch. Public and private. Man up for the challenge...charismatic, highly intelligent, vast healthcare industry knowledge. But not everybody wanted that. Some wanted him out; others wanted him in bed with them. Specifically, the women working Washington. He brings sexy back, while ushering intellect and integrity in. And he’s just so damn handsome. Real hot commodity! Those gunning for him; those gaming for him. Didn’t matter. He wouldn’t be thrown off course. The man had a mission. And his wife? Somewhat like...a hundred gradations of pink, maybe? She’d come upon a way to intensify the existing intensity between them. Witty, adventurous, creative, and simply gorgeous. She was at the top of her game, too. With so many challenges, how does this all pan out? How did he weave through waves of deception? What kept him grounded through it all? His wife helped. With that ‘feminine wiles’ thing, she took care of business. It’s all made crystal clear by the things people do... and don’t.
