Class, Race, and Humanity: Analysis of Speech and Behaviour based on Dying to Survive and Green Book

Abstract

With the development of cultural and historical processes, supported by technology, more and more media platforms are focusing on the value of people's ontological meaning. Cinema is one of the biggest platforms, with different types of films interpreting what it means to be human. Dying to Survive and Green Book both present different social meanings in their unique words and actions. Two films are classics of intercultural communication, with actors whose words and actions convey themes of class, race, and humanity. This essay firstly compares the words and actions in the film, analysing the content in the texts of Dying to Survive and Green Book films, mainly the differences between the different cultures represented by lines and actions, thus revealing the embodiment of humanity, race, and class. Ultimately, this essay will summarise the factors that influence social class, race, and human nature, despite the fact that as human society and culture continue to improve, there are still a large number of social problems. Film as a medium for the transmission of these different cultures also plays an important role in creating social value.
