Description :
The &#8216acion heroine&#8217has never been more popular than she is
today, with the likes of The Hunger Games (2012), Mad Max: Fury Road
(2015) and Wonder Woman (2017) granting her a newfound prominence in
Hollywood filmmaking. When most knowledgeable action fans think of the
action heroine historically, however, they tend to do so through the prism of
her most iconic characters: Emma Peel in the 1960s Lynda
Carter&#8217sWonder Woman in the 1970s Ripley and Sarah Connor in the
1980s Xena Warrior Princess and Buffy the Vampire Slayer in the 1990s and,
of course, the likes of Hermione Granger, Katniss Everdeen, Imperator Furiosa
and Princess Diana in modern times.Yet, the action heroine&#8217sepic
journey goes back much further than this. Indeed, it has its origins in the
earliest days of cinema, amongst the serial-queens of the early silent-era, and
the fleeting cowgirls, swordswomen, and jungle-girls of
Hollywood&#8217s&#8216Goden Age&#8217in the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s.
This book is about that epic journey. It traces the action
heroine&#8217scentury-long struggle for legitimacy and respect, beginning
with the silent-era serial, The Perils of Pauline (1914), and ending with the bigbudget
action-blockbusters of today.This book asks why the action
heroine&#8217spath towards acceptability on mainstream film and television
has proven such a long and tortuous one, why she is so hated by a vocal
minority of male action fans, and how she has overcome the conservativism of
the Hollywood system to at last forge a reputation for herself as a genuinely
viable protagonist on both the big and small screens?
