ANALYSIS OF MASCULINE WOMEN IN "BRAVE" ANIMATED MOVIE
Abstract
This study aimed to find out women characters and masculine women in Brave Animated Movie Script. Brave tells the story of Princess Merida who breaks the rules and opposes her mother in the kingdom. Her mother placed a strong emphasis on developing her masculinity. Merida's masculinity may be more overt, but that does not lessen her femininity.
Merida still has a feminine appearance. This study used the descriptive qualitative method. Lajos Egri's theory of women's characters and Judith Halberstam's concept of masculine women were both used in this research. Women characters found were dimensions are physiology, sociology and psychology. Representation of the Masculine in Symbols of Female Pretender and Male Mimicry was discovered. According to the research, Merida's masculinity is not innate; rather, it is created by her mother's influence and her father's encouragement.
