form of scripts, textbooks, advertisement, and any other types of document. In the same book, Ary, Jacobs, and Razavieh 2002, p. 22 state that document analysis
was applied as the methodology for it “provides narrative description and interpretation.”
B. Research Setting
The analysis of Mr. and Mrs. Smith movie was started from September 9th, 2014 until April 10th, 2015. Therefore, the researcher spent half a year in
analyzing the script to gather the expressions of women‟s speech and men‟s speech in the transcript.
C. Data Source
The data of this research was Angelina Jolie‟s utterances in English movie
entitled Mr. and Mrs. Smith that was in the form of movie transcription. The researcher chose the movie because it had two criteria, such as social interaction
between men and women and the supporting social environment that was needed in analyzing the factors which affected the speech style.
The movie was a romantic-action American movie produced by 20th Century Fox Production in 2005. The movie was written by Simon Kingberg and
directed by Dough Liman. It was a two-hour duration movie with Mrs. Jane Smith that was played by Angelina Jolie as the main character.
The reason the researcher chose Jane‟s character was because she had
strong and unique personality. In the movie, Jane was someone who was known
33
as an ordinary officer by people around her, including her husband, but actually she worked as the head of the profess
ional assassin enterprise. Jane‟s character shows the
men‟s speech style that was used by most of the opposite gender in the society. She also performed a unique speech style that made the researcher
interested in doing the research.
D. Research Instruments and Data Gathering Technique
There were two instruments used in this research, namely human instrument and document. The first instrument was the human instrument which
acted as the main instrument in obtaining the data. “The human instrument has the
unique capability of summarizing data on the spot and feeding it back to an informant for c
larification, correction, and amplification” Lincoln Guba, 1985, p. 194. Lincoln and Guba state that human instrument is the main instrument in
gathering the data from the documents. The second instrument was the document that can help the researcher in
doing the research, such as source books. In order to accomplish the research questions, the researcher made an observation on the script. After that, the data
found would be presented in the analysis. Ary, Jacobs, and Razavieh 2002 mention that the documents can be a personal document, such as diaries, files, or
books. The researcher employed the script to collect the data from the character‟s utterances. The
movie‟s transcript consisted of 121 pages and was taken from http:awesomefilm.comscriptmr_and_mrs_smith. pdf. The script that was found
in this blog was the original document, but there were some different parts and the
34
dialogues in the movie transcript were not as much as the dialogues in the movie. Based on that reason, the researcher combined both the original script and the
movie‟s dialogue when gathering the data, but most of the data were taken from the movie‟s transcript.
The researcher selected the utterances of Angelina Jolie that will be used as the data to find out the answer of the first research questions. Besides the two
main instruments, the researcher also used checklist and tables to gather the data in the movie. The researcher made two tables based on wood theories about the
features of men‟s and women‟s speech.

There were some supporting instruments that were used in this research, namely electronic devices, that were consisted of laptop and speaker and the
software that was the media player used to play the movie. The researcher listed the expressions needed,
such as the expressions of men‟s speech. The researcher also matched the expressions found in the movie with the movie transcript. After
collecting the data, the researcher would clarify men‟s and women‟s speech and would analyze the factors that affect A
ngelina Jolie‟s speech style in the movie.
E. Data Analyzing Technique
The data collected in this research were analyzed to answer the research questions. By watching the movie, the researcher cross checked the content, pitch,
intonation, and the complete information that can help the researcher in analyzing the data.
The first problem in the research was to present the features of men‟s and
women‟s speech in Angelina Jolie‟s utterances with the other characters in the movie.
