Klappentext
"My admiration for this book is immense. Impeccably researched and written with compelling clarity and wit, Unhomed has much to teach us about film's participation in modern American life."--Dana Polan, author of Dreams of Flight: "The Great Escape" in American Film and Culture"Pamela Wojcik provides a fascinating look at recurring portrayals of uprooted, unhoused, and transient figures in American cinema, including silent-era tramps, World War II combat veterans, hitchhiking dames, Reagan-era street people, and the precariat. In doing so, she unearths contradictory longings for both home and mobility, fixity and freedom at the heart of American culture."--Shelley Stamp, author of Lois Weber in Early Hollywood
