Abstract
This article will focus on the analysis of the two award-winning movies Slumdog Millionaire (Danny Boyle) and The Hurt Locker (Kathryn Bigelow), both released in 2008. It examines their cross cultural representations for ‘othering’, with a view to identify the strategies used in the construction of models for social ordering and validation of western superiority. Since the narratives of these movies attempt a representation across ‘western’ and ‘eastern’ identities, it is on ‘orientalism’ imagetics that I concentrate.
