Winter's Bone Ideology Graphic
This Graphic provides an overview of the key ideological issues for the film Winterâs Bone. There are other possibilities for the A-Level Film Studies Exam (such as gender or class) but this graphic provides possibly the best understanding of the more subtle political ideologies within the narrative and their contexts than the more âidentityâ based approach to ideology.
This graphic places the film within its concurrent social and political contexts, and these bear upon how the film will be** âde-codedâ** (vis. Stuart Hallâs theory) by viewers, depending upon the background knowledge they bring to their viewing experience. Therefore, this resource provides possibilities for** spectatorship issues** as well as ideology.
