One of the most popular actors of the Classical Hollywood period,
Tyrone Power's appeal was initially based around his outstanding
beauty, his looks remaining key to his star persona throughout his
25-year career and almost 50 films. This book presents the first
substantial academic study of Power and employs a range of
approaches, including stardom and genre theory, to reappraise his
career from various angles including gender, genre and image.
Textual analysis coincides with discussions of Power's
multi-layered performances in a variety of genres while engaging
with industry systems, specifically Twentieth Century-Fox, his home
studio for almost two decades, and situates Power's performances
within the contexts of industry regulations, such as the Production
Code, and industry technological advances, such as CinemaScope.
