The cinematic image of journalism has traditionally relegated the role of women to the background. The same occurs in Billy Wilder films, whose powerful portrayal of the profession in Ace in the Hole (1951) and The Front Page (1974) was cemented in his previous career as a reporter for tabloids in Vienna and Berlin in the twenties. Among the numerous journalists that appear in the twenty-six films he wrote and directed, only one in ten are women, and they are also relegated to the stereotypical patterns of representation of the early twentieth century. But unlike many other directors who worked as journalists before entering the world of motion pictures and who subsequently contributed to the construction of the film stereotype of the profession, Wilder could boast about something that was hardly within reach of his peers, since he had impersonated a female journalist who offered advice in the Berlin tabloid Tempo. This paper analyzes the female journalist characters in the twenty-six films written and directed by Billy Wilder, among the 240 workers in the mass media who appear in those films. The results show that Wilder relied on a highly stereotyped portrait of the profession, with only three female characters with enough of their own identity to stand out as individuals, and that Wilder’s portrait ties in with a primitive view of the profession in which women are only one out of ten media workers and only suited to write gossip columns and offer home advice.

家庭咨询，八卦和专业辞职

传统上，新闻的电影形象将女性的角色降为背景。比利·怀尔德（Billy Wilder）的电影中也发生了同样的情况，他在《 Ace in the Hole》（1951年）和《 The Front Page》（1974年）中对这一职业的有力描写在他20年代担任维也纳和柏林小报记者的职业生涯中得到了巩固。在他撰写和导演的26部电影中出现的众多记者中，只有十分之一是女性，而且她们也沦为20世纪初的陈规定型代表。但是与许多其他导演进入电影界之前曾担任新闻工作者，并随后为该专业的电影刻板印象的建立做出了贡献的其他导演不同，怀尔德可能会夸耀自己的同行难以企及的东西，自从他假扮了一位女记者之后，她就在柏林小报《天宝》中提供了建议。本文分析了由比利·怀尔德（Billy Wilder）执导和执导的26部电影中的女记者角色，这些电影中出现的240名大众媒体工作者中有这些角色。结果表明，怀尔德（Wilder）依赖于对该职业的刻板印象，只有三个女性角色具有足够的自身身份可以脱颖而出，而且怀尔德的肖像与该职业的原始观点联系在一起，在该职业中，女性仅是女性。十分之一的媒体工作者，只适合写八卦专栏和提供家庭建议。在那些电影中出现的大众媒体的240名工人中。结果表明，怀尔德（Wilder）依赖于对职业的刻板印象，只有三个具有足够个性的女性​​角色可以脱颖而出，而且怀尔德（Wilder）的肖像与该职业的原始观点有关，在该职业中，女性仅是女性。十分之一的媒体工作者，只适合写八卦专栏和提供家庭建议。在那些电影中出现的大众媒体的240名工人中。结果表明，怀尔德（Wilder）依赖于对职业的刻板印象，只有三个具有足够个性的女性​​角色可以脱颖而出，而且怀尔德（Wilder）的肖像与该职业的原始观点有关，在该职业中，女性仅是女性。十分之一的媒体工作者，只适合写八卦专栏和提供家庭建议。
