A Critical Film Analysis of Representation of People with Disabilities in M ABSTRACT A CRITICAL FILM ANALYSIS OF REPRESENTATION OF PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES IN M. NIGHT SHYAMALAN FILMS The purpose of this study was to examine the entire directorial catalogue of the director M. Night Shyamalan and provide a content analysis incorporating anti-inclusion ideology and his themes, as well as perspectives involving people with disabilities. The films examined in this study were all written and directorial works by Shyamalan that had a national cinematic release. The researcher examined each of these films and used content analysis to examine the behaviors and actions of the characters as well as the overall narrative of each story. The films were examined using the different analytical themes of (a) anti-inclusion, (b) danger presented by a person with disabilities to others, and (c) danger presented by a person with disabilities toward society. The current study found that over half of Shyamalan’s films had characters with disabilities portrayed as dangerous to others or society. There also was a significant number, half of his films, that had an anti-inclusion theme. These themes can be observed in other films and throughout the horror genre, using the parameters in the study, in order to create more critical content analysis and foster meaningful conversations regarding representation of people with disability in film.

Occurrences of anti-inclusion themes in the films of M. Night Shyamalan. .... 36 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION M. Night Shyamalan: Representation of People with Disabilities and Anti-Inclusion Themes This study provides a content analysis of a selected group of films by M. Night Shyamalan. Shyamalan consistently incorporates themes around people with disabilities. These themes come in three areas: danger presented by people with disability towards others, danger presented by people with disabilities towards society, and an overall narrative theme of harm from inclusion as it relates to society as a whole. By focusing on the films of Shyamalan, these themes were analyzed and a conclusion regarding themes in his films were drawn. The importance of film and its impact on how we view all sorts of marginalized groups is far too often forgotten. It can be seen over and over again how impactful media, and film in general, can be on exactly how we view all sorts of people groups. The influence of film on altering public perceptions of “others” has been evident from Nazi propaganda films to Birth of a Nation (Griffith, 1915). In addition, how we manage all sorts of moral questions and ethical situations can be viewed over and over again inside film and media, not to mention how art historically has been a reflection of society at virtually every level. From our shared fears and hopes to our shared concerns and fantasies, art and film have continually been one of the most impactful ways to view our cultural values. The horror and science fiction genres of film are a seemingly endless catalog. As for horror specifically, much can be gleaned about the shared fears of a society, from the fear of being left alone and vulnerable as in Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho (Hitchcock, 1960), to the fear of the unknown in films such as Poltergeist (Hooper, 1982) and Paranormal Activity (Peli, 2007). Our culture is saturated with the everlasting images and stories from films in the horror genre; from hockey masks to a simple flickering light, the 2 2 horror genre has painted how we react and interact with the environment and people we are surrounded by every day. There is very little question that film has an enormous influence on our perceptions of all kinds. The use of people with disabilities is present in this

  • “Why So Serious?” Comics, Film and Politics, Or the Comic Book Film As the Answer to the Question of Identity and Narrative in a Post-9/11 World
    ABSTRACT “WHY SO SERIOUS?” COMICS, FILM AND POLITICS, OR THE COMIC BOOK FILM AS THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION OF IDENTITY AND NARRATIVE IN A POST-9/11 WORLD by Kyle Andrew Moody This thesis analyzes a trend in a subgenre of motion pictures that are designed to not only entertain, but also provide a message for the modern world after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. The analysis provides a critical look at three different films as artifacts of post-9/11 culture, showing how the integration of certain elements made them allegorical works regarding the status of the United States in the aftermath of the attacks. Jean Baudrillard‟s postmodern theory of simulation and simulacra was utilized to provide a context for the films that tap into themes reflecting post-9/11 reality. The results were analyzed by critically examining the source material, with a cultural criticism emerging regarding the progression of this subgenre of motion pictures as meaningful work. “WHY SO SERIOUS?” COMICS, FILM AND POLITICS, OR THE COMIC BOOK FILM AS THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION OF IDENTITY AND NARRATIVE IN A POST-9/11 WORLD A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Miami University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Communications Mass Communications Area by Kyle Andrew Moody Miami University Oxford, Ohio 2009 Advisor ___________________ Dr. Bruce Drushel Reader ___________________ Dr. Ronald Scott Reader ___________________ Dr. David Sholle TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ..........................................................................................................................
