“Everything Everywhere All at Once” Through Mulvey’s Feminist Perspective

This paper employs Laura Mulvey's feminist theory to analyze the feminist elements in the Hollywood Kung Fu film "Everything Everywhere All at Once." Utilizing semi-structured interviews and narrative analysis, it reveals how the film's female characters demonstrate strength and independence. This reflects changes in female self-identity in modern society and challenges traditional gender norms. The research finds that the film's gender depiction aligns with feminist film theory, indicating Hollywood's acceptance of a feminist perspective. This marks progress in both gender portrayal and cultural cognition. Finally, the research emphasizes the need for future studies to explore the intersection of multiculturalism and gender perspectives in Hollywood films to further develop feminist film theory.
