About this book

Pursuits of Happiness: The Hollywood Comedy of Remarriage (Harvard Film Studies) by Cavell, Stanley. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780674739055.

During the ’30s and ’40s, Hollywood produced a genre of madcap comedies that emphasized reuniting the central couple after divorce or separation. Here, Cavell examines seven of those classic movies for their cinematic techniques, and for such varied themes as feminism, liberty and interdependence.
