Abstract

This article is dedicated to exploring the correlation between the emotional tone of gestures and their localizati on through the conduct of content analysis of gestures presented in the multimedia subcorpus of spoken Russian language, annotated by E. A. Grishina and including video fragments of Soviet and late Soviet cinema. The paper aims at determining the prevailing tonality of a gesture depending on its localization. Corpus linguistic analysis, multimodal sentiment analysis and correlational analysis are presented in the paper to state the possible connection between the active organ of gesture realization with its tonality. The article reflects the relevance of the research, covers the history of works devoted to the study of cinema as a polycode test and describes the methods used to analyze the film discourse. Based on the analysis, a comparative table of gestures and a matrix demonstrating the correlation of their tonalities are presented.
