Women & Cinema in The 1950s

The 1950s are often understood by feminist critics as a period of retrenchment when women were recast as wives and mothers in the domestic sphere, or as sexualised pin ups such as Jayne Mansfield, Marilyn Monroe etc. Discuss the representation of women in The Girl Can’t Help It (1956) with reference to Nicholas Ray’s Bigger Than Life (1956).

"A woman should be pink and cuddly for a man" (Jayne Mansfield)
“As Hollywood cinema came to be internationally dominant, exporting its discourse of (sanitized) sexuality, the appeal of “America” then had to be relocated again within the economic and political context of relations between the United States and the rest of the movie going world.” (Laura Mulvey)
