Mulvey in films

Mulveys psychoanalytic theory of the male gaze in film is only proven by Megan Foxs role in Transformers, this scene where she is trying to fix a car, by camera angles alone it shows the male gaze. When she is looking into the hood of the car the camera lingers on her body in many of the shots, when the camera goes to shoot her talking it pans from her waste up to her head, as to show her body to the audience. During the scene when she is doing things to the car to camera will often wonder to show her body movements instead of a close up of what she is doing in the car fro example. The mise en scene of her outfit is also very revealing, the actress is waring a crop to and shorts, although it could be argued that she is wearing such an outfit as the location of the film is in a warm state of America, however the males in this scene are wearing long jeans and in most scenes a jacket, this shows that the film is shot from a male perspective as the woman is objectified, whereas the males hold a key role and importance in the scene.
