Germany's '30s-'40s era film stars, such as Greta Garbo or Marlene Dietrich, were appreciated not for their National Socialist virtues, but for their wit, beauty and ability to make Germans forget about their violent present. Tainted Goddesses includes biographies of these women of the Nazi era, along with rare photographs, synopses and credits of their most important films.

There is nothing worse than a goddess who doesn't know she is one. Eternal life, powers so strong they can change a man's existence, are hidden from Bridget, lost in centuries of forgotten memories. Bridget Down has a good life-working in her shop, selling her crafts to local stores as well as donating them to the orphanage where she grew up. Other than the occasional pangs of loneliness that pass through her, she has no complaints. Well, almost no complaints. But something is missing in the jigsaw puzzle of her life, and it isn't just the hot and sweaty sex she dreams of and yearns for. When a mysterious man follows her, setting her pulse racing and hormones pumping, he forces her to remember a life she could never have imagined, a passionate and fiery love she could never have dreamed of, and a fight for her life that takes her to the pits of a hell where all her strength and newfound powers are needed to survive and overcome. Braze, the strong and relentless lover who claimed her on an altar on a planet far away, long, long ago, has finally found her. This time, whether she likes it or not, he won't let her go. The battle for Bridget has begun.

The purpose of this edited volume is to explore the contributions of women to European, Mexican, American and Indian film industries during the years 1900 to 1950, an important period that signified the rise and consolidation of media technologies. Their pioneering work as film stars, writers, directors, designers and producers as well as their endeavors to bridge the gap between the avant-garde and mass culture are significant aspects of this collection. This intersection will be carefully nuanced through their cinematographic production, performances and artistic creations. Other distinctive features pertain to the interconnection of gender roles and moral values with ways of looking, which paves the way for realigning social and aesthetic conventions of femininity. Based on this thematic and diverse sociocultural context, this study has an international scope, their main audiences being scholars and graduate students that pursue to advance interdisciplinary research in the field of feminist theory, film, gender, media and avant-garde studies. Likewise, historians, art and literature specialists will find the content appealing to the degree that intermedial and cross-cultural approaches are presented.

German director Frank Wisbar (1899–1967) had the misfortune of achieving success as a filmmaker just as Hitler came to power. While critics praised his work, Nazi cultural watchdogs were scornful of his attempts to chart “the landscape of the soul” in films like Ferryman Maria (1936) and Anna and Elisabeth (1933). Wisbar fled to America, where Hollywood saw him as no more than a technician, good for churning out low-budget horror like Strangler of the Swamp (1945) and Devil Bat’s Daughter (1946). A successful stint in early television allowed him to return home to a very different Germany, where he abandoned his earlier mystical themes to tackle questions of war and peace, tabloid journalism and racial conflict. The author examines the films and career of an under-appreciated auteur who ultimately lost faith in his own vision.

Heide Fehrenbach analyzes the important role cinema played in the reconstruction of German cultural and political identity between 1945 and 1962. Concentrating on the former West Germany, she explores the complex political uses of film--and the meanings attributed to film representation and spectatorship--during a period of abrupt transition to democracy. According to Fehrenbach, the process of national redefinition made cinema and cinematic control a focus of heated ideological debate. Moving beyond a narrow political examination of Allied-German negotiations, she investigates the broader social nexus of popular moviegoing, public demonstrations, film clubs, and municipal festivals. She also draws on work in gender and film studies to probe the ways filmmakers, students, church leaders, local politicians, and the general public articulated national identity in relation to the challenges posed by military occupation, American commercial culture, and redefined gender roles. Thus highlighting the links between national identity and cultural practice, this book provides a richer picture of what German reconstruction entailed for both women and men.

German National Cinema is the first comprehensive history of German film from its origins to the present.

The book traces the central role of cinema in the nation’s turbulent history from the Wilhelmine Empire to the Berlin Republic, with special attention paid to the competing demands of film as art, entertainment, and propaganda. Hake also explores the centrality of genre films and the star system to the development of a filmic imaginary. This fully revised and updated new edition will be required reading for everyone interested in German film and the history of modern Germany.
