Although a major star in the 1910s, Theda Bara--known as "The Vamp"--was largely neglected until the 1990s, when her fame began to resurface. Since then, there have been biographies, documentaries and other works that have brought the silent film actress back into the spotlight, including a painstaking stills reconstruction of her lost epic Cleopatra. This is a complete examination of Bara''s more than 40 films, as well as her theater and radio appearances, down to the smallest detail. With the vast majority of Bara''s films considered lost, it is a particularly valuable resource for fans and scholars, and includes information about each film''s genesis, director, plot, censorship problems, and critical and public reactions. Also included is a biographical overview, with many illuminating anecdotes.
