Abstract

This study examines how Legally Blonde (2001) depicts femininity using a qualitative content analysis: intelligence, and gender dynamics by applying feminist criticism, gender performativity by Judith Butler (1990) and intersectionality frameworks by Kimberlé Crenshaw (1991). In addition, the elements of the visual narratives (cinematography), such as: camerawork, tones of colors were analyzed. As the result: 1) It reveals how the movie subverts traditional gender stereotypes by showing Elle Woods’ transformation from being perceived as a “dumb blonde” to a competent lawyer, challenging societal expectations that femininity equates to a lack of intelligence. 2) It highlights the challenges women face in male-dominated professions, as seen in Elle’s experience navigating Harvard Law School while maintaining her feminine identity. 3) It focuses on how Elle’s success illustrates that professional competence and femininity are not mutually exclusive, as her journey critiques the rigid expectations placed on women in professional spaces. This research offers a detailed perspective on gender roles in media, highlighting how movies can either question or uphold societal expectations related to gender and career achievement.

Abstract

This study examines The Hunger Games (2012), directed by Gary Ross, through Michel Foucault’s concepts of power, discipline, and biopolitics. Using qualitative content analysis, the research investigates how the Capitol maintains dominance over the districts and how resistance emerges within oppressive systems. The findings reveal: 1) the Capitol’s exercise of biopower reduces life to political control, exemplified in the ritual of the Reaping where sacrifice is normalized as governance. 2) disciplinary power is reinforced through spectacle and propaganda, such as televised ceremonies and the constant reminder of rebellion, which embed fear and institutionalize trauma across generations. 3) despite these mechanisms of control, acts of resistance emerge: Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark subvert Capitol authority through personal defiance, illustrating Foucault’s view that power inevitably produces resistance. By highlighting these dynamics, the film underscores how power operates not only through coercion but also through cultural production, surveillance, and ideology. This analysis contributes to the understanding of how popular culture reflects and critiques structures of domination and the possibilities of resistance in both fictional and real-world contexts.

Abstract

This study aims to highlight the crucial childhood socio-cultural learning across the lifespan; how the affection, love, close relationships and parenting of both parents are primal that affect adulthood personality. Qualitative method was used to explain and criticize the psychological issue in this movie. Since the story is presented through moving pictures, cameraworks in cinematography were used to narrate the plot, settings, and characters. Furthermore, the theory of “Stages of Psychosocial Development” by Erik Erikson was applied as the approach to conduct this analysis in order to figure out what triggers Po’s anxiety related to two stages of Erikson's Basic Trust vs Mistrust & Autonomy vs Doubt, Shame. As a result: 1) Po’s anxiety is triggered by his inadequate trust at the Basic Trust vs Mistrust stage, making it difficult to control his dietary habit, pessimistic, dependent, and overly sensitive to rejection. 2) The lack of parenting at the Autonomy vs Doubt, Shame stage makes him manifest unfavorable outcomes: a lack of self-control, disorganized, messy and careless behaviors. 3) Po eventually manages to gain his confidence; however, his adult fixation still remains.
