recent books on language, gender/sexuality and film/media/performance?

[Riki Thompson]

Mary,

I don't know if either of these focus enough on the "language" aspect, but
two that come to mind are:

MAKEOVER TV: SELFHOOD, CITIZENSHIP, AND CELEBRITY by Brenda Weber (Duke,
2009)

WHAT A GIRL WANTS? FANTASIZING THE RECLAMATION OF SELF IN POSTFEMINISM by
Diane Negra (Routledge, 2009)

Dear all,

I have a student in film studies who's looking for a recent book (not
individual articles or chapters) on the above topic(s) for a class
assignment. Can anyone recommend something from the past 5 years or so?

Thanks a lot,

Mary
