Media question
How is Media language represented in the extract to display gander and sexuality in the 60's? 😈
In the extract multiple things are represented, mainly the sexuality difference and the established hierarchy of males. This is shown via the fact that Steed is only shown in low angle medium shots. This means that in the extract he is seen to be towering over the viewers further connoting to the hierarchy of males over females in the 1960's. He is later seen looking at her bum objectifying Mrs Peele. This later turn into a 1-2 shot of them having a rapier fight. This evokes lots of sexual chemistry between the co-workers before Steed is eventually pushed onto a chair. Steed the inappropriately smacks Mrs Peele on her backside. which further shows the fact that men only saw women as object to be looked at.
Furthermore, the sound in the extract pushes this to show that their relationship involves lots of sexual chemistry. In the opening heart fluttering plays as he ring the doorbell with his umbrella. Dialogue then ensues and Mrs Peele says" Good morning, the doors open". This cold insinuate that she's used to males coming over i the middle of the day. Steed then comments on her Rapier skills and they fight. Bawdy humour happens between shots before Steed in Pushed onto the chair. The ambient sound of the sword fight stops and he stats breathing heavily. He then smacks her backside and the tone drops until they fight again. The finishing line being "That was very dirty". This could be taken a number of ways and is quite inappropriate for Mrs Peele t say to her boss.
