THE JOHN KOBAL FOUNDATION COLLECTION LECTURE: Patrick Keating, Trinity College

In the 1940s, film noir adopted many of the visual techniques of 1930s glamour photography to juxtapose photographs with text to define glamour in narrative terms, as the culmination of a process of transformation. Professor Keating, whose most recent publication is The Dynamic Frame: Camera Movement in Classical Hollywood Cinema (Columbia University Press, 2019), will discuss examples of this phenomenon.
