there are fifty three utterances by Angelina Jolie that are considered as men ‟s
speech, with direct and assertive as the most used feature see Table 4.. The second problem in this research is „What are the factors that affect
Angelina Jolie‟s speech style in Mr. and Mrs. Smith Movie?‟ There are two factors that affect Angelina Jolie‟s speech style, namely power relation and social
situation. There are three categories of power relation, namely high power relation of the speaker High -Low, low power relation of the speaker Low
– High, and same or equal relation of the speaker. The three categories are determined by
some factors, such as age, gender, and position at work. In this research, the power relation that mostly used by the character is same power relation of the
speaker see Appendix C. The social situation is the external factors that affect the way people talk.
There are three defining features that affect the way people talked, namely place, role relation, and topic. The defining characteristic that affects Angelina Jolie‟s
utterances is topic see Appendix D. From the result of the analysis of the data, the researcher concludes that
Mr. and Mrs. Smith the movie can be a useful teaching material related to
sociolinguistics. The students can learn about kind of speech style, the factors that affect someone speech style and issues related to gender and language. By

B. Recommendations
The researcher recommends that the future researchers to conduct similar research regarding gender and language. Mr. and Mrs. Smith movie is an
interesting movie about marriage and job. The characters in the movie were interesting to be studied. Jane is a wife who works as an assassin and acts like a
man rather than a woman. Her husband, John, was also an assassin, but compare to Jane, John is the inferior one in their house.
The theory about gender and language is also an interesting topic to be studied. There are some theories that can be used to analyze Jane Smith‟s
utterances such as women language Lakoff, 1975. The future researchers can also study about the factors that affect the characters
‟ speech style in the movie. The English education students and teachers should realize and should
aware that movie can be a good media to teach some topics, such as sociolinguistics. The researcher also recommends that the English education
students can make the research that used some movies as the media in learning English because through the movie, the students can enjoy learning English.
