The Existence of Isabella Swan and Alice Cullen Characters as the Heroines in Breaking Dawn Movie
ABSTRACT
Women are often called as people who will always need men’s help and
protection. Men look stronger than women. In our society, many women can not
be equal with men. It happens because of several mistaken stereotypes about
women: what they should do and be. That most of our society have been
internalized by the ideas of “what is woman” by men. Due to the on-going
mistaken stereotypes about women in society, many women obtain difficulties or
issues of having their existence as a woman. Their existence as a woman exists
based on the society’s systems created by men, which is not capable of
representing what a truly woman is. The matter of persisting or showing one’s
existence as a woman apart from the society’s stereotypes intrigued the researcher
to have this issue as the focus in this study.
There were two women characters from Breaking Dawn part one and two
movies that became the subject of this study, Isabella Swan and Alice Cullen
characters. This study aimed to find out the way Isabella Swan and Alice Cullen
