First Paragraph

Cimnema has been dominated by male figures for many years playing the main charector in every film. Whereas females were given roles less possesive and powerless figure in action films and were chosen because of their physical attraction and to be used as sex objects. women got the side roles whilst men were given the active roles. However certain films such as ‘Kill Bill Vol2’ directed by Quentin Tarantino, challenged these sterotypes and portrayed women differently in this male dominated genre. Due to feminism in society, cinema has adapted to the change and has become less patriarchal and started to challenge sterotypes and theories such as the male gaze by laura mulvey.
