Description

type:text

The author attempts to analyze a Hollywood product by employing a cultural approach in order to reveal some of the concerns and preoccupations of US citizens: namely, progressivism and commercial consumerism and their discrepancies. Also, he attempts to lay out the relationships between social identity, national identity, mental state, and economic situation of the protagonist. Through such an approach, he hopes to examine to what extent the film reflects upon human reality in interpersonal/intercultural communication.
