The first study devoted exclusively to Cornell's relationship with the cinema, examining his "portrait-hommages" to female movies stars, including Greta Garbo, Lauren Bacall, Hedy Lamarr, and Jennifer Jones. The author discusses the artist's "cinematic imagination" and the ways he adapted techniques of accumulation and juxtaposition to the art of portrayal.
