- Hi there
I'm an A level Media student who's studying the module "Women in Film" and keira Knightley is my main piece.
I was wondering if any of you could help me out with my coursework by posting answers to a few questions on how women are affected by the portrayal of women in films and also how keira is represented in her films and what effect you think she has on others.
Any reference to Keira in these questions in fine and even if you only want to pick out one or two questions from these to answer, even for that i would be very grateful.
1. Do you think women have been given more power in life in reflection to the way women are portrayed in films?
2. Do you think films have had an influence on gender stereotyping?
3. Do you think Keira being represented the way she is influences the way teenage girls see themselves and who/ how they aspire to be?
4. Do you think there is a generated perfect female stereotype (both in personality or physically) from films?
5. How do you think the role of women have changed over time (with reference to that of women in films)?
6. Is the issue of gender equality still relevant in films today?
help me people I’m relying on you!
Thank you so much
Amy

I usually feel a stirring in my loins...
Bird has a nice bum, yes?
Seriously though, shouldn't you be answering this stuff, or is the assignment to ask others and compile an average of their answers?

Aye, unless the assignment has to do with collecting other people's answers (doubtful), this would be, well, cheating, wouldn't it?
As for the previous, er, responses: yeah, she's pretty, but she's built like a boy, too. That puts a pretty low ceiling on how fox-ified I can plausibly deem her to be.

I would not say that films have changed women's roles, but the opposite. If you look at older films about women, they're successful only when they figure out how to work the male-dominated system, or are 'good girls'. I'll let you find examples of that, since it's your homework we're doing here. It was after women got the vote and burned a few bras that women in film got a little more real.

Yoda's right. The girl has no curves AT ALL. She's got an intriguing face and that's it. Gemma Arterton is fitter than her imo. Do a piece on that girl. Girl has everything. arse, ****, face everything. Yum.
Yes . . . I am!
I'm going to have to disagree. I can beat that girl. Plus, someone call the fashion police. Where did she get those clothes?
These right here.
Seriously, a part of the problem is that you said "Women" in film. You should pick an actual "Woman". If a huge part of your questions are based on the films that they have been in, films for leading ladies, then the actress you choose should have a decent list of films that they have starred in.
Also, you are one of at least 5 people here asking school questions. Would the fact that you are asking us for help, and using other's answers, be something that you would want your teacher to know? That is a serious question, by the way.

Well she did model at one point, and those lot are known for their eccentric taste in fashion. But that's not the point, the point is Gemma Arterton has a womanly shape, which is SEXY. She's buff, simply put.
OMG, this thread is pretty funny. Am I being weird with wanting to answer?
I started to, but...
I think this sounds like a great project/paper!

She affects me about as much as I affect her, I think.
*cough*
Is this a school paper? Are you going to copy our answers and pass them off as yours? Are you really Joe Biden?? Fess up!

I think she has done so well because she looks like a boy. Know what I mean? Huh, huh?

My opinion of her is that she is a tacky little foul mouth tramp.
As far as acting, she is a throw away. When she no longer gives certain money people in Hollywood a thrill, they will dump her.
