Amanda Seyfried

Mean Girls is a film, which premiered in 2004 with starred major actress: Rachel McAdams, Amanda Seyfried, Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, and Lindsay Lohan. The film begins with a sixteen-year-old girl named Cady Heron who just moved to Evanston, Illinois from a twelve year research trip in Africa with her parents. Cady begins her first day of public school, since she was homeschooled, and she meets a group of three girls who are very popular and they are known as the Plastics: Regina the Queen Bee of the group, Gretchen is one of Regina’s minions, and Karen is also one of Regina’s minions. Cady befriends them to seek revenge on Regina since, she ruined one of Cady’s friend’s life, Janis. The film is fill with many rumors and drama that eventually breaks throughout the whole junior class in high school. At the end of the film, Cady apologizes to everyone who got involve with the rumors and drama and everyone became friends with each other. The reason why I chose this film is because it’s one of my favorite films from all time and I also enjoy it whenever I watch it. Other than that, this film shows a lot of cliques which is a major problem in today’s society. Cliques are a problem because many popular cliques bullied other people who aren’t “popular”. In the film, there were many…

Traditionally, femininity is associated with a particular set of personality traits and behaviours, which are deemed acceptable for women to perform by the most influential institutions of the dominant culture. The teen makeover movie is a visual medium that reinforces these expectations through the types of female characters they present. Gender stereotypes reveal a distinct correlation between performances of idealized femininity and the distribution of female power in their high school…

High School is a period in adolescence where identities are found within the self by figuring out where they belong in this world. That can be hard especially for teens like Cady Heron in the 2004 movie Mean Girls directed by Mark Waters based on the book Queen Bees and Wannabes which encompasses females in high school cliques and how damaging it can be for development to girls. Cady Heron is a 16 year old who has just moved back to the states after living in Africa for her parents zoology…

Media, in the forms of photography, film, and writing are similar in that they often reveal a particular message, or comment on a societal aspect. For some, these messages may be underlying, while in others, they are evident and transparent. This idea helps distinguishes differences in media. Photography is widely open for interpretation. In the case of Errol Morris’ “Will the Real Hooded Man Please Stand Up?” the lack of context and textual clues make it hard to discern what was true or what…

Both of these women are very strong characters. A Streetcar Named Desire is entirely focused on Blanche and her delusions. Towards the end of The Glass Menagerie, Amanda reverts back to being the most popular girl in Blue Mountain. She is also assuming that the gentleman caller will take on look at Laura and want to marry her, thus securing Amanda and Laura’s future. Both of these women characters are very strong. Since Williams’ sister Rose and mother were the only women with whom he had a…

drug-free. However, she is not a hero in this movie, maybe even far from it. She starts out as an outlaw hero that murders in order to survive. Then she transforms into a villain when she becomes Jigsaw’s assistant and does not abide by the rules of his game by not giving the victims the chance to live. She is this type of villain because she doesn’t have a backstory that makes her sympathetic to the audience. In “No Sympathy for the Devil”, the author argues that in Dexter, the television show,…

There are several celebrities that have been arrested in recent times. One of such celebrity is Amanda Bynes. The former child star was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of a substance suspected to be a drug outside of Los Angeles, in California. According to the report, Amanda “ran a red light at an intersection just to make a complete stop in the middle of the same intersection” (Corriston, 2014, para. 2).

The two ads I chose were Live Irrésistible, a perfume by Givenchy, in Elle magazine and TH Bold, a cologne by Tommy Hilfiger, in Men’s Health magazine. Elle is a magazine for women between the ages 16-30, who have an interest in fashion and the latest trends. In contrast, Men’s Health magazine targets men between the ages 18-30, who have an interest in their health and sex lives. According to Susan Bordo in almost every advertisement we see “men act and women appear”, these two ads are no…

behind at directing a movie is what gives this movie a big drop of quality and makes it feel insipid. The script on the other hand is mediocre and tends to go for the easy laugh, most of the writing he does for one of his TV shows would have a better quality than this. The essence of the first movie I lost at some point during the film as a lot of scenes seems to be forced into the equation in order to obtain something from it. The voice work is the only thing that really works for Seth in this…
