What is the gaze?
Is it political?
Is it power?
Is it resistance?
Why Resist?
Think about:
What happened when
“Miss Pauline”
identified with the
white character.
What does this
promote?
Think about:
Why is “feminist film
theory” a bad example for
feminist film theory?
Beyond Conclusions
Are
there any other
variables that maybe
feminist theory has
ignored?
What other “isms” need to
be examined?
