Representation of Spectre


The representation of gender in Spectre portrays typical stereotypes of gender . Males in the film are strong , powerful and show independence . Women in the film are shown to be weaker and less powerful than men . However , they are a bit underestimated as they can seduce the men which does give them an edge over them as they cause distractions . As a result , they are also shown to be cunning and sly . Also , Bond is English and in the film he is shown to be a formal in the way he dresses and speaks . He is shown to be confident in the work that he carries out too . Being a white man , Bond is also demonstrated to be heroic which reinforces the stereotype in Hollywood for action films with the white man being the hero . European people are shown to be evil and scheming which is also a typical stereotype in Hollywood films . The social class in the film is stereotypical because everyone is in a higher or upper middle class . This reinforces the stereotypical British class system because British people are considered to be of a high social class and posh or formal . Also , in the trailer , the men are represented to be violent because it shows the audience various shooting and fighting scenes which happen throughout the film . Overall , there are many characters that have  
something stereotypical about them .
