Description:
This book explores the changing representation of the couple, focusing on themes of marriage, equality and desire. Kathrina Glitre moves beyond the usual screwball territory to consider cycles of production from 1934-65. The central concern with the representation of the couple is distinctive and includes discussion of three star couples: Myrna Loy and William Powell, Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy, and Doris Day and Rock Hudson.
Glitre offers explanations of genre, as well as detailed analysis of screwball comedy, career woman comedy and sex comedy. Each cycle is placed into context to analyse cultural discourses around heterosexuality, gender, romance and love. This structure also enables a more sophisticated understanding of such conventions as masquerade, gender inversion and the happy ending.
The book will appeal to university students and academics working on genre, gender, culture and representation, and anyone with a keen interest in Hollywood romantic comedy. -- .

Was great until it stopped working
Color: Pink
Got this toothbrush for my daughter back in February. It worked amazing. The battery life was great, timer was great, and no complaints. From February to August it worked without flaw then the toothbrush would not longer turn on. Initially we thought it just needed to be charged, and even felt my daughter was not charging it properly or not long enough, but it never turned back on. The red power light will turn on, but the vibrating never starts. After several attempts at charging I reached out to the company 2x via email after reading another review of them replacing the toothbrush but have still not received any response. The company did not even send an email acknowledging they received my email. I guess you get what you pay for. I wouldn't recommend buying. Now having to buy another toothbrush, I should have just spent the money initially on a brand name toothbrush rather then now spending twice the amount.

After writing this review, I did get a response from the seller who agreed to replace the tooth brush. I was also offered a refund, which I appreciate, but definitely was not expecting. I truly just wanted a replacement. Great customer service response following my post.
