For my final project I want to focus on the different gender
roles in movies and comparing the roles of those characters in movies to that
of others. Also, I want to criticize how these gender roles have become almost typical
of directors to assume to have in movies. I will use examples of different movies on how
these movies have or have not displayed certain tendencies of stereotyping or
placing certain gender roles on the characters in the movie. I am also interested in finding characters in movies that do not adhere to the stereotypes. I was looking to see if there were any strong characters in the sense that they don't do the traditional things that most movies would most likely place in a character. I am thinking on making this in to some form
of a documentary format. I plan on using
the different types of movies and compare them to others to see whether the directors
or the writers had written the characters differently.
Is this going to be base on Hollywood films, foreign films or both? It would be interesting to see how stereotypes found in different cultures play out in gender roles and are these similar or different each other.
