James Bond

We can apply Mulvey's theory of the male gaze to a clip of james bond, the first shot we see is a panning shot over the scenery then he focuses his view on the sea where hallie berry emerges the camera only focuses on her and does no avert the eye line until she has fully left the water. but we are still very much focused on her body even when she turns away. Through out the whole shot bond is in control and is dominant character as he the one who first makes interaction. Also he is stood for the whole shot with a cigar in his mouth which shows that he is masculine and it also give the female audience a bit of gratification. When the two are talking he averts his eyes to look away from her to a group of men who are surrounded but girls and money and these girls are being very objectified, as bond is the main dominance in this clip it also makes berry look as it shows her that he is not like those men over there and even though he took gratification from her coming out of the water he doesn't not just see her as a sexual object, he actually engages in conversation with her and wants to know more about her. Even tough this clip is mainly focused on her bogy and her image then her as a person she is very much more of an active character as she does interact and the camera does focus more on her face and her talking then her body.
