Abstract

This article looks at the influence of Hollywood stardom on Bombay films in the 1960s that gave birth to Indian female star figures: the influence of Audrey Hepburn and the political events in India had major roles to play. Stars, such as Sadhana Shivdasani, Sharmila Tagore and Mumtaz, occupy an important role in the advent of economic and sexual liberalization that became central to feminist (re)presentations. They also played a key role in creating the image of the ‘ideal’ Indian woman. Despite its many patriarchal-centred narrations, Bombay cinema occupied a prominent place in feminist engagement as it created more opportunities for dialogues and awareness for women than were generally available at the time in Indian culture.
20世纪60年代孟买明星和时尚文化:我们心中的女王
本文着眼于好莱坞明星对20世纪60年代孟买电影的影响,这些电影催生了印度女明星人物:奥黛丽·赫本的影响和印度的政治事件发挥了重要作用。像莎达娜·希夫达萨尼、莎米拉·泰戈尔和蒙塔兹这样的明星,在经济和性自由化的出现中发挥了重要作用,成为女权主义(再)展示的核心。她们在塑造“理想”印度女性形象方面也发挥了关键作用。尽管有许多以父权为中心的叙事,但孟买电影在女权主义参与中占据了重要地位,因为它为女性创造了更多的对话和意识的机会,而不是当时印度文化中普遍存在的机会。
