His
Girl Friday
“In
His
Girl Friday,
the life of the 'newspaperman' is presented as being naturally
subversive.”
Defend
the above statement with examples from the film and explain what the
film’s journalists attempt to subvert. Please keep in mind that
this paper is about how the journalist characters
are subversive, not
the
film as a whole.
Along
the way, you may also want to address these questions:
Why
do the journalists do what they do?
Are
they really as subversive as they seem?
Are
they actually more subversive?
At
all times, keep in mind our specific definition of “subversive.”
