    Archive Study Guide: LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL AND TRANSGENDER TELEVISION: MADE-FOR-TV MOVIES ARCHIVE STUDY GUIDE In contrast to the stereotypical depictions frequently seen in episodic television programming over the past five decades, historically, many made-for-TV movies have reflected a more realistic approach to representations of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) communities and issues. As early as 1972, ABC’s That Certain Summer, explored the relationship between a divorced gay man and his son to warm critical reception and a subsequent Golden Globe award for “Best Movie Made for TV.” Similarly, ABC’s A Question of Love (1978) marked an early portrayal of a lesbian mother, her loving relationship with her domestic partner and their joint effort to retain custody of their children in a climate of homophobia. An Early Frost, broadcast on NBC in 1985, garnered wide acclaim and numerous awards as one of the first network programs to dramatically and sensitively examine the devastating impact of the AIDS crisis on a gay individual and his family. Unencumbered by pressures to accommodate advertisers, productions originating from the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) and cable networks have consistently presented a wider range of earnest depictions of LGBT lifestyles than have been previously shown on television. HBO’s More Than Friends: The Coming Out of Heidi Leiter (1994) featured an early small screen same-sex kiss in its examination of a teenager’s realization of her lesbian sexual orientation. Showtime’s drama, Soldier’s Girl (2003) offered the true story of hate crime victim Barry Winchell, a 21-year-old private first class who falls in love with a transgendered nightclub performer.

    NEEDS FOR LOVE AND BELONGINGNESS OF CARRIE BRADSHAW IN MICHAEL PATRICK KING’S SEX AND THE CITY MOVIE (2008): A HUMANISTIC PSYCHOLOGICAL APPROACH RESEARCH PAPER Submitted as a Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Getting the Bachelor Degree of Education in English Department by: NINDA PRAMUDYASTUTI A 320060342 SCHOOL OF TEACHER TRAINING AND EDUCATION MUHAMMADIYAH UNIVERSITY OF SURAKARTA 2010 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Everyone needs love, not only man but also woman and both of them have motivated to fulfill it. Many people think it is possible to grow up and live their life without knowing love. They can speculate whether or not love is the ultimate purpose of life. However it is believed that love is the only one worth fighting for. Some people regard that love is something that makes happy. It is true if someone finds a good partner in her life. Sometimes, people feel sad because of love. Love ruins everything. Someone feels like that if he feels broken heart because of love itself. Love can bring people ecstasy or leave their sore and sick. Even if people are afraid to bear all in the search for love, the rewards outweigh the injuries. It relations with the story of this movie. In this movie, there are many opinions about the meaning of love such as love is sex, love is something treasure and so on, but all of them need love and belongingness from the other person. Sex and the City is comedy romantic drama. It is an American Cable Television Series.

  • Thesis Corrected 2
    Aaron Sorkin’s America: Politics, Trauma, and the Liberal Genius Samantha Gray PhD 2020 Aaron Sorkin’s America: Politics, Trauma, and The Liberal Genius Samantha Gray A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Manchester Metropolitan University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of English Manchester Metropolitan University 2020 2 Abstract This thesis demonstrates that, across his body of work, Aaron Sorkin constructs an American cultural imaginary that foregrounds ideas of intelligence and community, areas of his writing that have typically been neglected in existing scholarship. Scholarship on Sorkin’s work has tended to focus on The West Wing (1999-2006), which is arguably the most critically successful to date. However, I argue that the rest of Sorkin’s oeuvre just as overtly demonstrates notions of honour and decency that are forefront in the America that he has constructed, and that any examination of his writing should also take into consideration his films and other, critically neglected television series. Alongside a critical re-evaluation of The West Wing, this thesis pays particular attention to Sorkin’s television series Sports Night (1998-2000), Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip (2006-2007) and The Newsroom (2012-2014); and his screenplays, including The Social Network (2010) and Steve Jobs (2015), and directorial debut with Molly’s Game (2017). This thesis is divided into eight thematic chapters, examining notions of civic duty and journalistic responsibility; education, intelligence and elitism; the newly identified character type of the Liberal Genius; individual and national trauma; family and relationships; and religion and Republicanism. The thesis not only identifies the continued reoccurrence of these themes throughout Sorkin’s work, but engages with their presence in American life and popular culture more broadly, such as the changing role of the genius from the Founding Fathers to contemporary television series.
