O estereótipo em personagens femininas: Um estudo de caso do filme “Garota Exemplar”

Abstract

The representation of female characters through stereotypes in films can be considered as old as cinema itself. This feature can be used to help introduce a character to the viewer, bring surprises to the plot or even act as a key factor within a narrative, as is the case of the film adaptation of the best-selling book "Gone Girl" by the author Gillian Flynn, which portrays the story of a couple (Nick and Amy), whose lives take a huge turn after the wife disappears under mysterious circumstances. In this sense, the present work aims, through a case study, to expose and understand how stereotypes are applied, reinforced and manipulated by the author to guide the public's opinion during the plot of 2014, in order to become an element of great importance. relevance throughout the events of the film.
