This is the blog for CTCS 412 at the University of Southern California. This course revolves around a critical investigation of the role of the star in contemporary U.S. culture. In an attempt to analyze the star phenomenon, this class will focus on the role of the star within the ‘machinery’ of cinema – the ways in which stars function in the entertainment industry, within cinematic and extra-cinematic texts, and at the level of individual fantasy and desire.
