At the figure 10, The camera uses close up lense again to show Elinor facial expression. Elinor is crying after she hides disappointment and works to
convince Lucy she fells nothing to Edward. This is particularly hard as she sees Lucy tell and tell about her engagment and happy to Edward while Elinor realize
that she can not with Edward forever. The frames show that women are around all day accountable bursting
into tears. The different between women and men that women are easily to cry to express their emotion. Elinor and Marianne Dashwood are two central female
characters in Austin’s Sense and Sensibility. They are respectively represented sense and sensibility. Marianne who got illness and lost her beloved Willoughby
and Elinor still indulges her disappointed heart. They are models of extreme sensibility.
d. Female stereotypes as sexual objects
Probably, the best genre of film in which to observe gender is romantic drama. Pearce and whisker define romantic love as ‘reproduction of infantile
human desire and romance as the culture representation of that desire.”

Female stereotype function is as object of desire that expressed in term of this two steps
process of presentation and representation. Female characters are doubly constructed according to desire both male camera and male spectator. The notion
of the male gaze has become a shorthand term for the analysis of complex mechanisms in cinema that involve structures like voyeurism, narcissism and

Figure 14, Willoughby took Marianne hair
Camera shot is placed beside Willoughby as Willoughby eyes to see Marianne’s body. Women’s bodies are often dismembering into legs, breast,
thigh, or necks. The camera acts as sees Marianne’s neck. Camera placements work to give male spectator’s pleasure. The depiction of Marianne as the passive
object of Willoughby’s male gaze evokes the male spectators’ identification with Willoughby.
The camera placements and movements acts as Willoughby’s eyes.
Thus, humanity is male and man defines woman not in herself but as relative to him.
This empowers the male audience with the power to control the look and enjoy the
visual pleasure offered by the farming of female stereotypes as object in this adaptation.
Thus, she is called ‘the sex’, by which is meant that she appears essentially to the male as a sexual being.
Perspectives of male spectators that occur in film which serve to sexual objectify of men.

CHAPTER IV CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION
A. Conclusions
In every narrative text such as film, novel, lyric, poem, etc the author will describe his or her point of view how the society or even the world supposed to
be. The author creates new world – an imaginative world – which suit his or her ideology. This filmmaker will potray the world which suits his or her concept. Be
The concept that he takes is his point of view about ideal world. When a film is said to be based on a work of literature, it usually means
either film is an almost exact reproduction of the story remaining completely faithful to its model, or it is an adaptation of the text in which original material is
reorganized or deleted, and new material is created added where necessary. The film of Sense and sensibility is an example of an adaptation and it is based on Jane
Austin novel with the same titled “Sense and Sensibility.” New scene and situation are created to round out and develop the story line. Sense and sensibility
film was directed by John Alexander and was written by Andrew Davies. Regarding to discusion above that in Sense and Sensibility film, John
Alexander wants convience the spectators about women can not be equal at that time. He shows how patriachal values developed. Which is men were in control of
all monitory assets. He can do whatever he want, he can go wherever and whenever. While women was created to be more concerned with nurturing. After
