Abstract

The paper is about the visual critical discourse analysis of the selected scenes from the Avengers (2012) movie. The current paper analyses the female character "Natasha" from different perspectives. The researchers have selected feminist theory (second wave of feminism) while the model of Philosopher Charles S. Peirce (1931-58) has been taken for analyzing the selected scenes of the movie. Peirce's model consists of compositional analysis, semiotic analysis, and visual critical discourse analysis. Different signs and discourses have been used in the movie, which has been clarified by the model that what messages have been delivered by the film producer. It has resulted in the paper that different roles have been played by the female character Natasha in the movie. She fought bravely against the Sphinx forces and equally participated with men in every field of life.
