Abstract: The critical reception of "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari" in New York in 1921 was a significant occasion in the development

film industry, and larger contradictions of Progressivism helped determine this historical moment.

Abstract: This article examines the film author as a social function and a narrative function. It argues that in film the author emerges
from a juncture of multiple codes and practices, manifesting itself as a voice that is at once collective and cultural.

star persona, and our own ambivalences toward the way sexuality, gender, and power are aligned today.
Christopher Anderson
Abstract: "The True Story of Jesse James" is a film about the process of telling James stories and about the transformation of James
as a cultural figure. It is both a parody of previous James films and a revisionist critique of them.
