Michele Schreiber is Assistant Professor of Film and Media Studies at Emory University.
"Schreiber's text provides a valuable insight into the continued
influence of postfeminist anxieties surrounding heterosexual
romance on contemporary American cinema. Her framework of the
conventions of the 'postfeminist romance cycle' offers a useful
method for analysis that could be expanded upon in further research
projects. The text will be of interest to scholars in the fields of
gender and sexuality, film and romance, in addition to cultural
historians and researchers of American Studies in general." --
Krystina Osborne, CERCLES
"In her well-researched and cogently argues book, Michele Schreiber
explores the disconnect between the reality of women's personal,
economic, and social gains and cinematic representations of women
in the twenty-first century." -- Sarita Cannon, Journal of Popular
Film and Television
