\"MP<\/a>The following\u00a0invitation to read Pam’s essay\u00a0was written by REFRAME editor\u00a0Dr Catherine Grant of the University of Sussex:<\/p>\n

‘Writer-director Todd Haynes has previously recounted how film scholar Pam Cook’s 1978 foundational article “Duplicity in MILDRED PIERCE” informed his 2011 HBO miniseries adaptation of James M. Cain’s novel (an effective remaking of Michael Curtiz’ 1945 film).\u00a0Now,\u00a0in her new essay for the open access serial\u00a0SEQUENCE (a\u00a0REFRAME<\/span><\/a>\u00a0publication),\u00a0Cook turns her attention to\u00a0Haynes’ miniseries\u00a0and its intertextual chain of makings and remakings, and explores, in particular, how we come to read it (or any other audiovisual artefact) as “maternal melodrama.” Her essay is\u00a0online here: \u00a0http:\/\/reframe.sussex.ac.uk\/sequence2\/archive\/sequence-2-2\/<\/span><\/a>.’<\/p>\n
