Images of families are everywhere in media, including in movies and television. What constitutes a family has changed significantly in recent decades, and much of those changes are reflected in the families we watch on screens. Some of these images reflect our personal experience of family and some are very different from what we know and have experienced.
STEP 1: For this assignment you will discuss concepts and theory from a movie of your choice and incorporate terms from the text. Movies to choose from: My big fat Greek wedding; Family Stone; Moana; Mrs. Doubtfire; Failure to Launch.
Film Analysis
This minimum of 3-page typed paper (double spaced except for the heading-see below), Times New Roman, 12 font, 1-inch margin) will analyze a film of your choosing. The film needs to address about the family (you may browse ahead for other chapters in the textbook).
For this assignment you will need to :
Provide a brief written summary/synopsis of the film (no longer than a half page).
STEP 2: Choose one theoretical view of the family identified in the first chapter (functionalism, conflict theory, symbolic interactionism) through which to analyze your chosen family.
Reflect on how well your family selections support a theoretical view of family. Your reflection should be 300-500 words. Use your identified families as support for or an argument against the theoretical view of family in society. Consider the following questions:
- What norms are assumed in this family?
- What roles do family members have?
- How are the assumptions and points of view in this family understood through your chosen theoretical view?
- What argument do these families make about public perceptions of family behavior and structures?
- What does this family say about society?
For example, you might decide to write about how the Simpsons reflect a functionalist view of the family in society. You can evaluate each family member on how well they socialize Bart, Lisa, and Maggie, how each member provides emotional and practical support for each other, and how significant changes in their family impact its stability.
A2DR: This will be a response to one classmate about their Power point that you have reviewed. You only need to respond to one other classmate. It needs to be in depth and meaningful and add some further information.
