23/01/15 Gaze

Males dominate the gazes, when there is a womans gaze they are naturally punished.- Linda Williams

Spectators are identified by the gaze, most often the film has been created from a male perspective and therefore difficult for other people to relate.

Film works on an unconcious level, to regress the audience to the mirror stage.

Oedipal theory- male

Mulvey, Metz, Belour- Male gaze

Williams- Woman is punished

Kaplan- Submissive
