I thought this movie was well made and completely true. The only problem I had with this film was that it was very repetitive. I found that It said the same message over and over, but it made a great point about women being treated differently in the media. I have noticed that it is not only in the media that women are treated differently, during sports men have higher standards than women, meaning that people expect more from men than women during sports, politics and media. In men's volleyball the net hight is 7"11 but in women's volleyball the net is at a hight of 7"4.http://fueledbydietcoke.com/2011/03/25/fake-perfection/

Sarcasm In "Miss Representation"
During this past week we have watched a movie called miss representation. This film was about women and how they have been used as these kind of marketing objects in the advertising world. We were looking for devices like tone and irony. Me and my partner got sarcasm as our device. I only only found one representation of sarcasm. Sarcasm is when something is said but not meant to be taken literally. The one sentence in this hole movie was when the narrator said "and they replaced her with Drew Carry, because he's so fit". They used sarcasm to prove a point in this movie that women still aren't treated with respect like men are.
