Try to pick some set of relevant questions from below and write a short essay with a thesis and supporting arguments
Prompt: According to Basinger, what qualifies as a "woman's film" and what messages did they send to women in the 1930s-1950s? Woman's films are not a thing of the past, however. Find an example of a "woman's film" made in the past 15 years and discuss how the messages it communicates to viewers are both similar and different from older "woman's films" (NOTE: you do not need to watch an entire film! You can find a film review online and read that instead). Finally, take a stand: do viewers today passively accept what these new movies tell them? If not, how do they "negotiate" what they take away from the films?
