Abstract

This journal investigates how Forrest Gump's portrayal of disability in romantic relationships. To investigate how the main character, Forrest Gump, and his partner, Jenny, encountered difficulties in forging a love relationship because of Forrest's disabilities, the researcher employed a qualitative technique with a narrative analytic method. The study sought to investigate how the movie deals with disability difficulties while presenting the ideal romance formula. The study also discovered that the Forrest Gump movie adheres to Janice Radway's ideal romance formula while adapting it to the disability setting. The individuals' personalities are given more depth by this extra complexity, which also advances the story as a whole. The Forrest Gump movie accurately, tenderly, and meaningfully shows romantic connections between individuals with impairments, according to the study. Forrest's intellectual impairment isn't the main focus of his persona; rather, it's only one facet of who he is. The movie demonstrates that Forrest is a loving, kind, and sympathetic individual who is able to develop lasting connections despite his impairment. Jenny's reaction to Forrest's impairment is honestly portrayed in the movie, and she first has second thoughts about dating him. She comes to see, nevertheless, that Forrest's impairment is only one aspect of him and does not characterize him as a person as their relationship progresses.

Abstract

Romance movie scripts are one of the most popular types of popular literature. But most fans don't know that in a work of popular literature there is a formula that is quite important because it influences the plot of the story and helps the audience to understand more about the story. Examples of romance movie scripts that have this formula are Emma (2020) and Persuasion (2022). This research will discuss the ideal romance formula in the movie scripts Emma (2020) and Persuasion (2022) using Radway's ideal romance formula theory and comparative literature theory. The purpose of this study is to find out the differences of the ideal romance formula in the movie scripts of Emma (2020) and Persuasion (2022). This research is qualitative research with a comparative descriptive research method. The results obtained from this research are that Emma fulfills 10 out of 13 functions with the 4th, 5th, and 10th functions which are not fulfilled. Meanwhile, Persuasion also fulfills 10 out of 13 functions with the 3rd, 4th, and 10th functions which are not fulfilled. This is due to the theme of romance which is raised differently. Emma (2020) has the theme from best friends to lover, while Persuasion (2022) has the theme from ex to lover.

Abstract

Religious issues that are no longer relevant to modern living are represented in The Wonder (2022) film by Sebastián Lelio. This research aims to unravel the Religious Dogma in the film by focusing on examining the religious situation of Irish society in the nineteenth century. Tracing the religious life of the Irish community in the nineteenth century, where the majority adhered to Roman Catholicism, this research uses the sociology of literature method. In more detail, this research applies Max Weber's theory of the sociology of religion approach. The Wonder film entirely is the research data, but specifically, the writer takes the socio-religious context, screenshots from several scenes, and film dialogues as the secondary data. So it can be said that data collection in this research used documentation and literature study techniques. Analysis of the sociology of religion in The Wonder (2022) film by Sebastián Lelio is still rare to find, so this research is essential so that it can add to criticism resources of the sociology of literature. Aside from that, the results of this research are that the modernization and logicalization of religion can occur along with times of development and the relevance of public interest.
