About the book

"Through innovative readings of a dozen movies made between 1928 and 2001 in Europe, Japan, and the United States, Orit Kamir shows that in representing 'gender crimes,' feature films have constructed a cinematic jurisprudence, training audiences worldwide in patterns of judgment of women (and men) in such situations. Offering a novel formulation of the emerging field of law and film, Kamir combines basic legal concepts - murder, rape, provocation, insanity, and self-defense - with narratology, social science methodologies, and film studies"--P. [4] of cover.
