Cultural and Social Pressure
This the fourth and probably last blog I write about "Bend It Like Beckham". In this blog, I would like to write about social pressure represented in the movie. In the movie, as those of you who have watched it may already know, Jess, the protagonist suffers from social pressure.
The social pressure includes
- Girls should be able to make dhal and chapati
- Girls are not expected to play football
- No snogging in the public
Additionally, there was a scene where Tony confessed Jess that he was gay. In this scene, her reaction was "you are Indian!" that implies that under social pressure, Tony does have not freedom to be homosexual.
Therefore, in the movie "Bend It Like Beckham", the social pressures are represented in many ways.
As I mentioned at beginning, this is the last blog I write about this fantastic movie. I hope you enjoyed reading my blogs! By the way, please feel free to comment on my blog.
