Laura Mulvey- Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema 1975
Naomi Wolf- The Beauty Myth
Ann Oakley- Gender Socialisation
How might these theories apply to Jessica Rabbit?
Laura- her theroy is that the camera is the audience and that the male audience wants to look at females in sexual ways. "The eye of the camera is like the eye of a male"
In Jessica Rabbit the camera focus on her legs and breast.
Naomi- says that "eating disorders rose exponentially and cosmetic surgery because the fastest-growing specialty" due to how woman are seem on TV and films.
If Jessica Rabbit was real she would be dead due to the fact that she is too skinny.
