Abstract

The article focuses on a particular movie personality who is seen to have broached the politics of memory and history in the context of youth cinema, and the role of film in facilitating the restoration of what history has omitted. Particular focus is given to American film actress Molly Ringwald who is of the present but remains firmly, and problematically, entrenched in the past. Her contribution in the motion picture industry in the mid-1980's is discussed.
