Refer to stereotypes in your answer.
Use examples from the extract.
You might consider the representation of:
- gender
- race and nationality
- spies
- family, love and marriage
Love and marriage
Gregorio and Ingrid’s wedding is an anti-stereotype of most
modern marriages. Firstly because Ingrid is not wearing the traditional white
gown, but she is instead wearing a more golden colour. Secondly, the guests
seem very normal but that’s what spies have to act like- normal. They are
wearing very gorgeous gowns and clean cut suits and wearing sunglasses which
also make them look like spies as well. Most weddings do not have secret agents
waiting to rescue the bride and groom from a helicopter attack providing them,
very quickly, with parachutes which they jump over the cliff edge in a plan to
escape.
Gender and family
Ingrid is a stereotypical mother because she is loving and
caring to her children. For example, she is telling her daughter her love story
as a bed time story. This is produced in a cosy happy scene which is typically
known in many households with young children. However, Ingrid breaks her
stereotype motherly side because she hides the fact that she is really a high
skilled, notorious secret agent from them.
