REPRESENTATION

A route into representation is through exploring gender representations. You should be able to discuss the function of stereotypes in a narrative and by looking at the role of heroes and heroines will be able to think about the extent to which these types of characters conform to a particular set of characteristics.

This is also true for other types of characters that appear in Action Adventure films such as the villain. In exploring character stereotypes students should be encouraged to consider if types of people are misrepresented and if
so does this limit the appeal of a film?
