Poster



  • The title along with all four girls, foreshadows this films going to be ‘MEAN’.

  •  All girls are wearing pink, signifying pink is a main colour theme for the film.

  •  This picture, from the way they are standing implies friction.

  •  She's in front of everyone else, signifying she's the boss.

  •  This connotes these girls are the main characters.

  •  Lindsay Lohan, standing away from the other ‘Mean girls’ , show us there's something different.  

  •  The way Lindsay is standing also foreshadows she’s fighting with who she is.

  •  Lindsay has a more distanced relationship with the girls, as she's standing along


  • Actress Cameron Diaz takes a lead role, in the film: My sisters keeper.
  • Abigail Breslin takes the role as the daughter, there purposely to help her older sister with a serious illnes.
  •  Actress Sofia Vassilieve, takes the roll of Cameron Diaz's daughter in the film.
  •  This picture connoted a good healthy relationship between mother and daughter.
  •  The background of this posters like a big bubble, its a ward picture but had to me it gives the impression of a darker side, a cold atmosphere.
  •  At the bottom of the picture is the mothers oldest daughter, shes got a serious illness.

Claude-Levi-Strauss

Claude Levi-Strauss: Narrative theory
A narrative theory is the coherence/organisation given to a series of facts about someone/ someone’s story. According to research the human mind needs narrative to make sense of things. In everything we see for example a story has a; beginning, middle and end. Claude Levi-Strauss was a social anthropologist; he studied myths of tribal cultures. The research he discovered has been adapted by media theorists to reveal oppositions in media. The oppositions are opposed to others so that we can make different views and new discoveries.
