ABSTRACT

Dozens of superhero films have been produced to date, yet their narratives tend to marginalize characters of color and offer stereotypical representations of masculinity and femininity. Ryan Coogler’s Black Panther places people of color at the center of its narrative; this study investigates whether it disrupts commonplace tropes and offers innovative portrayals of Black womanhood and manhood. The analysis focuses on the characterizations and the story lines found in the film, particularly considering how the narrative engages with aspects such as agency, ideology, choice, allyship, and empowerment. The analysis uses an interpretive methodology and is informed by works in critical/cultural studies, communication, film, and feminist scholarship. The findings suggest that the film subverts stereotypes found in Hollywood movies, presenting characters that embody complex intersectional identities, yet these portrayals are carefully negotiated within the context of a popular franchise.

摘要

迄今为止,已经制作了数十部超级英雄电影,但它们的叙事往往将色彩特征边缘化,并提供了典型的男性气质和女性气质的表现形式。瑞安·库格勒(Ryan Coogler)的黑豹Black Panther)将有色人种置于叙述的中心;这项研究调查了它是否破坏了普通的对白,并提供了黑人女性和男子气概的创新写照。分析着重于电影中的特征和故事情节,特别是考虑叙事如何与诸如代理,意识形态,选择,盟友和授权等方面互动。该分析使用一种解释性方法,并从批判/文化研究,传播,电影和女权主义学者的著作中获悉。研究结果表明,这部电影颠覆了好莱坞电影中的陈规定型观念,呈现出体现复杂交汇身份的人物,但这些刻画是在受欢迎的特许经营权的背景下经过仔细协商而得出的。
