How Laura Mulvey's theory is linked to my independent study.

Laura Mulvey's theory is linked to my independent study as she talks about the male gaze. Catwomen (Halle Berry) in the film is a protaganist and the hero and the audience are forced to identify with her. She is being sexually objectified because of the ways she's dressed like the tight fitting outfits which reveal most of her flesh and the weapons she carries like the whip which can be seen as a phallic object but also a fetish object, the whip is also related to sadism as it can be used for offering pain in a sexual way.
