Discuss theories to gender in relation to the killing (20)
/.
Laura Mulveys ays Male Gaze. In the killing the teenage girl who is fed now was seen wearing a very slutty outfit as if she was dressing for men, wearing what they want her to wear. men have pushed this on women so much that they now dress for men. wheres Sarah Lund is quite opposite and doe not look at herself through the eyes on men.
Judith Butler- Gender is performative. In the killing the girl running through the wood is what society has created and hat society expects her to do. its the appropriate thing to do
Van Zoonen- Gender is constructed through what we see. So in the killing again the girl running through the woods in a short white dress which reinforces and teaches girls thats how they have to act and look which creates a circle of repetition.
Bell Hooks- Feminism is for everyone. Like in the killing, the detective is a women and no one is ever like Omg she's a women! its just accepted as a normality.
Why is the killing relevant to Hesmondhalge?
This show has received a lot fans, not just in Denmark but in the US and UK also. The killing is not just a TV Show thats popular but also increased tourism to Denmark. Also Sraha Luns jumper has become a trend. Its promoting a culture where women have rights.
