  • ""Impossible Bodies investigates issues of ethnicity, gender and sexuality in contemporary Hollywood. Examining stars from Clint Eastwood and Arnold Schwarzenegger to Whoopi Goldberg, Jennifer Lopez and Dolly Parton, Chris Holmlund focuses on actors whose physique or appearance puts them at the margins of Hollywood film, and yet who occupy shifting and key positions in contemporary mainstream cinema. Grouped into three sections, "gesturing towards genres," "siding with sidekicks" and "staring at stars," chapters examine a range of "impossible bodies" on film from the Pumping Iron documentaries to The Quick and the Dead." http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0649/2001044193-d.html."
