A representação do jornalista e do jornalismo no cinema hollywoodiano no século XXI

Abstract

This work proposes to make an analysis of the different representaitions of the journalist and journalism through Hollywood movies of the 21th century. In the film industry, the jounalist and journalism have been developed and updated through the decades. We seek to show how the professionals and the profession are represented in cinema and and how this has been beneficial or not for both of them. Through the filmic analysis by Francis Vanoye e Anne Goliot-Létè, Moving Image Analysis by Diana Rose and movie review by Jacques Aumont and Michel Marie of some productions that enphatically portray the journalist, and, because of that, approach journalism, we identify the main basic carachiteristics that cinema portrays of the professional and the profession on the big screen. The end of the analysis of the films, we can find the characteristics we were looking for according to our theoretical framework. With that, we were able to identify these characteristics and justify them following the authors studied during the monograph.
