Abstract

This study aims to analyze how toxic masculinity is depicted and its impact in the film Monster (2023) by Hirokazu Koreeda, using Michael Kimmel’s theory of masculinity (1997). The method used is qualitative descriptive, with data obtained from scenes and dialogues in the movie, as well as sources such as books, journals, and relevant websites. The results of this study show that this movie depicts various forms of toxic masculinity, such as the demand to be a “real man,” the rejection of anything considered feminine, and homophobia. This has an impact on the psychological condition of the characters Minato and Yori, who experience mental pressure, bullying, and even violence. This study shows how toxic masculinity affects social interactions and reinforces rigid gender norms, especially in children. This study is also expected to contribute to the depiction of toxic masculinity in films and serve as a foundation for further research in the field of gender studies.

Abstract

This study examines the depiction of labor exploitation in The Menu (2022) using Marxist theories. By focusing on the relationship between Chef Slowik and his kitchen staff, this study analyzes how exploitative labor conditions can lead to alienation and suicide. Using a qualitative method, the film is thematically analyzed through dialogue, visuals, and character interactions. The study draws on the theories of Karl Marx to explore the themes of surplus value, false consciousness, and different forms of suicide. The menu shows that in extreme capitalism, death is not simply the end of life, but can also be a symbol of critique, rejection, and liberation. using the concept of alienation. These three deaths, although different in form and context, share the understanding that when work, identity, and the value of life are completely taken over by the capitalist system, alienation can push individuals and collectives towards inevitable destruction.The findings reveal how capitalist pressures in a stressful environment can lead to psychological disorders and fatal consequences.
