In the twentieth century, with the advent of cinema, the literary fortunes of actresses experienced a new upswing. Across a wide range of fictional texts, the figure of the female performer was used to question the casting of femininity as the “spectacular gender” (Judith Butler), as well as words, images, and identity, the latter a fragile montage of the self and its manifold reflections.
