"""This book does nothing less than stage a major reconsideration of one of cinema's most cherished and contested works. Collectively, these articles offer the reader an invigorating account of the complex intermedial and historiographic relations that can be generated by one movie over time. Whether rethinking what constitutes powerful acting, opening up new trajectories in the study of sex work on film and beyond, or activating a treasure trove of archival material, The Year's Work in Showgirl Studies is an indispensable book for scholars of cinema, performance, and culture.""—Ryan Powell, author of Coming Together: The Cinematic Elaboration of Gay Male Life, 1945-1979 ""Smart, intricate and delightful, this collection does full justice to the complexities of camp through explorations of Showgirls, the most canonized of bad films. A true treat.""—Susanna Paasonen,author of Carnal Resonance: Affect and Online Pornography"
