The Representation of Women in Pretty Woman, Thelma and Louise, and Hollywood in General

Women's representatives of "Pretty Woman", "Selma" and "Rui", and General Works in Hollywood In this course we will write articles about women in the media and the movies "Beautiful Women" and "Plugs". Article on the role of Erma and Louise. I will also write articles on how stereotypes are often used in movies. These stereotypes can be judged by groups of people who may not be true. For example, in a "beautiful woman", Vivian is half naked in bed and takes close-ups of her body This is usually a sexy scene in a Hollywood movie they use.

At the beginning of the movie Thelma and Louise, Thelma and Louise are women living a typical American women's lives and they communicate in the same way as people expect them to communicate with women . Their main concern is to have relationships with men, and not to make them crazy. However, they needed to take a break and the two women decided to take a short vacation. When Selma was raped by the man he met at the bar, their lives changed. When Rui shot and killed the rapists, they discarded them and then changed the way they communicate and act with other men. They can not seek or establish an emotional relationship with men anymore because they are forced to make quick and decisive decisions. This makes it clear that you reach Mexico to avoid a clear goal that they must achieve, that is to be bound by law. Once they have this clear and concise goal (the qualities that men possess) they will communicate more directly with men.

Knowing Khouri's feelings about the women's representatives in the movie, I am glad to see the role in her actions. But before I delve into the depiction of Selma and Rui, I will briefly introduce feminist movie theory. Understanding the ideas behind the feminist movie theory will reveal this controversial movie. Feminist movie theory claims that patriarchies form a traditional movie format and therefore inherit and support that view and value. Because the camera represents a man's perspective, the film is taken from the viewpoint of a man. As a result, there is a "male gaze" where we can see female characters.
