BRIDGET JONES POWERPOINT
>Bridget Jones's Diary is a British movie, through the issues outlined in the powerpoint. Although the film contains some American elements such as the production companies and an American lead role, Renee does play a British character, accent and all. The film has a keen focus on gender values; Bridget expliots her feminitity to get the man; while the man uses this to get the sex, putting it simply. This objectification of women is in some way negative. Another sexist issue is in terms of her career; whilst the men are the bosses and successful characters, the women are stereotypically the receptionists or in Bridget's case later on, the laughting stock of the show (the fireman pole). What representation of Women are we truely getting; Weak, alcoholic and jobless - possibly a sexist, negative reading?
