Description
Apply the spectator theory to a critical analysis of the film Fish Tank’. Your goal, in writing this analysis, is to show your mastery of that theory through an analysis of a specific film. How does Fish Tank challenge the patriarchal operations of spectatorship as analyzed by Laura Mulvey?
While your analysis of the film will depend primarily on your ability to discern its formal operations in light of the theory, you will also need to consult secondary sources. You must make use of at least one of the course readings related to your theoretical framework, and also any one of the following:
Linda Williams, “‘Something Else Besides a Mother’: Stella Dallas and the Maternal Melodrama,” Cinema Journal 24.1 (Fall 1984): 2-27
OR
Erika Balsom, “In Search of the Female Gaze,” CinemaScope 83 (2020)
