the first time you see brad pitt in the car, he is the one driving showing that he is the head of the family. when the van drives past ad the disequilibrium starts it is the male who get out the car too see what is going o. he is shown to be brave and protective. when he gets out the car he tells his family to stay where they are showing he is the boss and protector of the girls. his wife calls his name when she s scared in the car and he is the only one who does not show fear at the situation. this shows men to be fearless and that the woman needs the man.
all of the people in the trailer either the soldiers or the government officials, anyone in power who is doing something is a man this shows that men run society and that men are powerful and the ones who are in control.
brad pitt is shown as an alpha male in this trailer. he always keeps his cool and is constantly looking out for others. he is always at the front of the crowed and everyone listens to what he has to say.
the way he looks adds to this alpha male representation he has stubble and long hair giving him a very rugged look. he looks quite tough. brad pitt is also a good looking guy this shows that men are not only tough, in charge, take control of a situation and look good whilst doing all of this. this representation is highly constructed as not all men are fearless fighters that look like brad pitt however that is what people are lead to believe through this trailer.
another representation of brad pitt in this trailer is the family man. we see him stroking his daughter and he is reluctant to leave them for his mission showing that he has a caring side and his family are the most important thing to him.
overall in this trailer men are represented positively but also falsely. he is shown as the perfect/ideal view of what a male should be however this target is unachievable in real life.
