The word “Psychology” comes from Greek, namely “Psyche”, that means “Soul”, and “Logos”, that means “Science”1 Psychology is as a discipline science that specific to study human behavior have many space is that quite wide in field and in human behavior. In general, psychology defines as psychology that study behavior or an individual daily psyche in normal adult.

Psychological knowledge is applied to various spheres of human activity, including issues related to everyday life, such as family, education and employment. Psychologists attempt to understand the role of mental functions in individual and social behavior.2 Psychology was born in the 1880 as the science of consciousness and psychology may be defined as the science of individual human behavior.

Wilhelm Wundt says in his major theme, “Psychology is the study of the normal human mind—and nothing more”.3 It means Psychology has a duty to investigate human feelings by experiences in his/ her environment that expresses problems.

B. Emotion

Psychology of film is a film study which gaze the work as the psychological activity. Psychology studies beside carefully examined characterization’s character in psychologist but also the thinking aspects and author feeling when create it.4

An emotion is a mental and physiological state associated with a wide variety of feelings, thoughts, and behavior. Emotions are memorable experiences and ever present in daily life. Moments when we feel love, affection, fear, anger, or sadness may be remembered for years. These moments influence our thinking, guide our behavior, and confuse us.5

Emotions have been studied from three points of view, namely conscious awareness, physiology, and emotional expression. Conscious awareness is the introspective study of emotional experience, Physiology is general organic responses in emotion and Emotional expression is genetic study of human response. And for this analysis, the writer chooses emotional expression, which’s by Robert Plutchik.6

C. Emotion by Robert Plutchik

Robert Plutchik's psycho evolutionary theory of emotion is one of the most influential classification approaches for general emotional responses. He considered

(18)

eight primary emotions, namely anger, fear, sadness, disgust, surprise, anticipation, acceptance, and joy. Plutchik proposed that these basic emotions are biologically primitive and have evolved in order to increase the reproductive fitness of the human. Plutchik argues for the primacy of these emotions by showing each to be the trigger of behavior with high survival value.

According to this theory, emotions are a set of expressive patterns based on adaptive behaviors. Emotions have developed into a system of communication that conveys the inner states of the individual to others.

Robert Plutchik was professor emeritus at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and adjunct professor at the University of South Florida. He received his Ph.D. from Columbia University and also a psychologist. He has authored and coauthored more than 260 articles, 45 chapters and eight books and has edited seven books. His research interests include the study of emotions, the study of suicide and violence, and the study of the psychotherapy process. 7

Although emotional substrates cannot always be discerned in the behavior of nonhuman animals, many stimuli are experienced by people and animals alike and result in prototypical behavior followed by, generally, the reestablishment of an equilibrium state that might not have been achieved without the impulse precipitated by the inner state. In human experience it is common to use the term “emotion” to describe the feeling state, but in fact emotion is considerably more complex.

7


(19)

Plutchik‘s three-dimensional circumflex model describes the relations among emotion concepts, which are analogous to the colors on a color wheel. The cone’s vertical dimension represents intensity, and the circle represents degrees of similarity among the emotions. The eight sectors are designed to indicate that there are eight primary emotion dimensions defined by the theory arranged as four pairs of opposites. In the exploded model the emotions in the blank spaces are the primary dyads—emotions that are mixtures of two of the primary emotions.

D. The Types of Emotion

There are many types of emotions. Plutchik developed a remarkable many types emotion list that could be described by English words. In this research, the writer will consider in positive and negative emotions.

Positive Emotions, namely: 1. Excitement

Excitement is an intense state of interest. It can be stimulated by novelty, by change, by unpredicted events, or by the anticipation of some event. Excitement is the emotion that accompanies exploration, adventurousness, and


(20)

risk taking. It helps focus attention and seems to strengthen or sustain problem solving efforts. 8

The expression of excitement in humans can be seen in the behavior of fans at a college football game. A long pass or a touch-down is a critical stimulus. People shout, jump up and down, and wave arms, banners and scarves. At some colleges, the fans look on more serenely than others.

2. Surprise

The expression of surprise is widely recognizable across cultures. A lifted brow; wide, rounded eyes; and an open, oval mouth give the face an exaggerated, rounded look. Surprise differs from interest in that it is a sudden, short-lived emotion. We do not remain surprised for long. In the moment of surprise there is a sharp jolt that can be experienced as a gasp, sudden muscle tightening, or knee buckling.

According to Pluthick, surprise described as the emotional dimension associated with orientation. The orienting response takes place while the organism is examining something new or strange. The emotion of surprise can be expressed as long as the object has not yet been categorized or evaluated. Once the object is recognized as dangerous or pleasant, the surprise fades. 9

(21)

3. Joy

According to Principles of Psychology book, joy same like surprise, can not be sought directly. It seems to occur most intensely in moments that are unplanned or unexpected. Joy may accompany triumph, creative effort, exercise, a good meal, or a chance meeting with an old friend. The experience of joy is spontaneous. One may strive for it by engaging in pleasurable experiences and miss the mark. States of varying intensity related to joy are delight, happiness, cheerfulness, and serenity. The signals of joy, especially the smile and laughter, provide a means for communication between infants and their caregivers. 10

In responses to joyous emotion, (for example, by laughter or excited behavior), efforts are made to prolong or continue the situation, and usually no effort is made to avoid or end it.11

4. Love

Love is a deep sense of acceptance and commitment to some person, object, or activity. There are five different kinds of love, including parental love, love between friends, love a child for his or her parents, patriotism or love of one’s homeland, and romantic love. 12

10

12


(22)

People bring out expressions of affectionate behavior in young children. Childish affection is exhibited in hugging, kissing, or patting; later such overt responses tend to be replaced by verbal expressions of endearment.13

Negative Emotions, namely: 1. Fear

Fear comes from terror and panic to distraction and uncertainty. These emotions are produced by threat. The treat may be real such as that produced by a violent storm. A person may become frightened by a shadow passing in front of the window. One internal may frighten oneself by fantasizing that a war might start. And finally, the threat may be the loss of a source of comfort or support rather than the presence of a danger.14

2. Disgust

The emotion of disgust is similar to the experience of spoiled food. Anything that is foul, rotten, or dirty stimulates a sense of disgust. The experience may include a shudder, nausea, a desire to spit or vomit, or a verbal “uch” or gagging sound. One common response to a disgusting act is to turn one’s face away.

Disgust includes loathing and revulsion at the high level of intensity and dislike or boredom at the low level. The function of disgust is to signal contamination. A state of disgust can be stimulated by an idea or a personality

13

Henry E. Garrett (1961), op. Cit, p.187

14


(23)

trait. One can even feel disgusted by one’s own thoughts or actions. When feelings of disgust are joined by feelings of anger, the outcome can be a very hateful rejection.15

3. Anger

Anger is an emotion that is accompanied by high tension level. Muscles tighten, the face feels hot, and there is a rising feeling of energy and an impulse toward action. The angrier the person becomes, the harder it is to restrain a desire for some kind of physical action.16

4. Sadness

Sadness is an emotion associated with a sense of loss. Among other features, the expression of sadness involves arched eyebrows, slanted eyes, a drawn mouth, and a raised lower lip. In some instances, sadness is accompanied by sobbing, moaning, or crying. Feelings of sadness can vary in intensity. Some different states of sadness include grief, dejection, depression, or pensiveness. Feeling sad is associated with loss, failure, loneliness, hurt, disappointment, and illness.

Sometimes sadness is a reaction to an external event, especially loss. The loss may be a person, an object, an opportunity, or an ideal. At other times,

15

Ibid, p.345

16


(24)

sadness accompanies specific imagery or memories. Sadness or “feeling down” can also be a result of hormonal changes, certain illness, or a symptom of some drugs. In last case, the feelings of sadness can be increased by emphasizing aspects of the environment that might have a sad meaning. The feelings can be minimized by attributing them to their physiological origins.17

5. Guilt

Guilt produces a gnawing feeling in the stomach and a tight throat. Someone who feels guilt hangs their head and avoids eye contact with others. Guilt can be an enduring uneasy emotion in which one continues to feel that one has wronged another. Guilt is usually prompted by a feeling of wrongdoing. It is evoked when the person believes that he or she was responsible for the transgression. The specific content of the wrong can vary widely across cultures and among individuals. A person may feel guilt about violating a cultural norm, about failing to live up to an ideal, or about having certain thoughts.18

E. Character and Characterization

Someone who appears in a work is called a character. Character is the fact of the story. This element will function as imaginative action note in the story. There are several authors in books tell about character definitions, namely:

17

Ibid, pp. 342-343

18


(25)

1. According to X. J. Kennedy, A Character, then, is presumably an imagined person who inhabits a story. Characters may seem flat and round, depending on whether a writer sketches or sculptures them. A flat character usually has only one outstanding trait or feature and tends to stay the same throughout a story, and Round character, however, present us with more facets—that is, either author portrays them in greater depth and more generous detail and often changes.19 2. Characters can be classified as major and minor, static and dynamic, plat and

round. A major character is an important figure at the center of the story’s action and sometimes called protagonist. And minor character is often static from the beginning of a work until the end. 20

3. Dynamic character is one who changes because of what happens in the plot21. Static characters, however, remain unchanged; their character is the same at the end of the story as at the beginning.22

4. Character is almost inevitably identified by category—by sex, age, nationality, occupation, and so on.

For example: his name is Sonny, is simultaneously an African American, a man, a blues musician, a heroin addict, a younger brother, an ex-convict, and a resident of an inner-city neighborhood. As result, our interpretation of Sonny is shaped not only by our assumptions about each of these

19

X. J. Kennedy, An Introduction to Fiction, (Boston, Toronto: Little, Brown and Company, 1983), p. 46

20

Robert Di Yanni, LITERATURE: Reading Fiction, Drama, Poetry and Essay, (New York: Mc. Graw, 2002) 5th edition, p. 1186

21

Plot is the arrangement of incidents in a narrative. The incidents are related by cause and effect and form a sequence of events with a beginning, middle, and the end. In most story plot structures, the action begins with exposition, continues with raising action, which contains a complication, and moves to a climax, followed by falling action and a resolution.

22

(26)

group helps to make Sonny who he is. Thus story asks us to think about how Sonny’s choice to be a blues musician relates to the fact that he is African American, about the way inner-city life has shaped Sonny’s experience of being African American, and so on.23

From all of definitions above, the writer concludes character is someone who always appears in film, story or drama and has important in role of the plot.

According to the Art of Watching Film book, through action and dialogue, some films focus on the clear delineation of a single unique character and with plot can help to develop character. The theme of such films can best be expressed in a brief description of the central character, with emphasis on the unusual aspects of the individual’s personality.24

There are major methods to reveal character in, namely:25

1. Narrative summary without judgment.

2. Narrative description with implied or explicit judgment. 3. Surface details of dress and physical appearance.

4. Character’s actions -- what they do.

5. Character’s speech – what they say (and how they say it). 6. Character’s consciousness – what they think and feel.

Character creation is the art of characterization—what the author does to bring a character to life, to provide the reader or the audience with a sense of that character’s personality, to make that character unique.26 According to Robert Di

Yanni, Characterization is the means by which writers present and reveal character. Let’s look at the way James Joyce characterizes Mrs. Mooney, a major character, in

23

J. Paul Hunter, Allison Booth, and Kelly Mays, (2002), op. cit, p. 103-104

24

Joseph M. Boggs and Dennis W. Petrie, The Art of Watching Films, (London: Mayfield Publishing Company,2000), p. 13-14

25

26


(27)

“Boarding House”. “Mrs. Mooney was a butcher’s daughter. She was a woman who was quite able to keep things to her: a determined woman. She had married her father’s foreman and opened a butcher’s shop near Spring Gardens.”

These given facts that she was a butcher’s daughter and interpretive comment that she was a determined woman. From both comment and fact derive an impression of a strong woman, one who can take care of herself.

Another method for analyzing film characterization utilizes three different types of pairings: stock characters and stereotypes, static versus developing characters, and flat versus round characters.27

Stock characters and stereotypes are not essential or even desirable for every character in a film to have a unique or memorable personality. Stock characters are minor characters whose actions are completely predictable or typical of their job or profession (such as a bartender in a western). They are in film simply because the situation demands their presence. However, stereotypes are characters of somewhat greater importance to film. They fit into preconceived patterns of behavior common to or representative of a large number of people.

Static versus developing characters are often useful to determine whether most important characters in a film. Developing characters are deeply affected by the action of the plot and undergo some important change in personality, attitude, or outlook on life as a result of the action of the story. Static characters remain

27


(28)

essentially the same throughout the film. The action does not have an important effect on their lives.

Flat versus round characters. Flat characters are two-dimensional, predictable characters that lack the complexity and unique qualities associated with psychological depth. And round characters are individualistic characters who have some degree of complexity and ambiguity and who cannot easily be categorized.

B. Data Analysis

According to emotion theory by Robert Plutchik, emotions are a set of expressive patterns based on adaptive behaviors. Emotions have developed into a system of communication that conveys the inner states of the individual to others. 1 There are nine types of emotion appear in Annie’s emotional, namely: excitement, surprise, joy, love, fear, disgust, anger, sadness, and guilt. According to Principles of Psychology book, there are many types emotional in Robert Plutchik theory, but the writer just takes nine types of emotion that appear in this film.2 The emotions have appeared and expressed in Annie’s life while she is being a nanny for Grayer in Upper East Side clan of Manhattan in Mr. and Mrs. X house. Those emotions are described as follows:

1. Positive and Negative Emotions in Annie Braddock a. Excitement

Excitement is an intense state of interest. It can be stimulated by novelty, by change, by unpredicted events, or by the anticipation of some event. Excitement is the emotion that accompanies exploration,

(41)

adventurousness, and risk taking. It helps focus attention and seems to strengthen or sustain problem solving efforts. 3

She introduces as Annie Braddock, a twenty one years old woman. She is a New Jersey girl (Annie’s voice: ...a native New Jersey girl participating in a dreaded rite-of- passage ceremony. Doh!) She is a girl that really excites when there is a strange place and many people around look into her, like a ceremony.

On the picture above, the writer sees emotion of excitement in Annie. She is a girl from New Jersey who always feels strange in the crowded place, and always feels excitement; she can not control herself in the new place, different and interesting, novelty/different strange person, and unpredicted events, like a graduate ceremony in her college. And in this film shows in

picture 1 and the statements above, when she is walking to the stage in nervous and then she falling down with the statements Doh!.

b. Surprise

The expression of surprise is widely recognizable across cultures. A lifted brow; wide, rounded eyes; and an open, oval mouth give the face an exaggerated, rounded look. Surprise differs from interest in that it is a sudden, short-lived emotion. We do not remain surprised for long. In the moment of surprise there is a sharp jolt that can be experienced as a gasp, sudden muscle tightening, or knee buckling.4 And surprise can categorized as a brief emotional state that is the result of experiencing an unexpected relevant event.

Picture 2

(43)

While she is being a nanny, she shows surprise on picture 2. Her eyebrows rise, and become curve and high, rounded eyes and her mouth in oval. The moment of surprise is sudden and short. It shows while she has a dating with Harvard Hottie, although they aren’t a couple. In unexpected situation, while they are going home, (1397(Picture 2, Harvard H: I saw you in that Betsy Ross getup. (laughs) Annie: That is really kinky and weird)

Harvard Hottie flatters Annie for a kiss. Furthermore, Annie feels and expresses surprise to know that and then she suddenly runs him after and the statements when Annie feels surprise is to say “uh-huh”

c. Joy

According to Principles of Psychology book, joy same like surprise, can not be sought directly. It seems to occur most intensely in moments that are unplanned or unexpected. Joy may accompany triumph, creative effort, exercise, a good meal, or a chance meeting with an old friend. The experience of joy is spontaneous. One may strive for it by engaging in pleasurable experiences and miss the mark. States of varying intensity related to joy are delight, happiness, cheerfulness, and serenity. The signals of joy, especially the smile and laughter, provide a means for communication between infants and their caregivers. 5

(44)

Picture 3

From the statements and picture 3 above, it shows that Annie finds answer what job that she wants in her dream. In the film Annie likes a happy girl with smile, cheerfulness, little surprise, and say “hmm” to show what she wants to choose for the job. She says before going to sleep that she can to know what job she must choose for in her dream (Annie: Even so, I fell asleep confident. That I'd magically find my way.) Her mother presents in her dream that is calling her (Mother: Annie? Annie! (Wolves howling) Annie?) Annie can fly with umbrella to see a beautiful city from the top and in a great way with her umbrella and say the echo “Ahh-hoo-hoo!” in her dream (Annie: Ahh-hoo-hoo!) Mother says that Annie must go down from the sky (Mother: Get your feet on the ground, young lady.) And the last, in her dream she smile and says like this “I know/ yes” to try apply as a nanny for Upper East Side clan in Manhattan ((Annie: (Sighs) Hmm. (Annie's voice: The fact that I had no child-care experience. Mattered little to the matriarchs of the Upper East


(45)

Picture 4

Annie shows joy in this film is while her mother has giving Annie a present (Annie: What is it? Mother: You'll see. Annie: Oh, wow.-Annie: Thank you. Mother: know it's not much, but I wanted to buy you your first business

suit. Annie: Thanks. Thank you.) Annie says a gratitude to show her appreciate to her mother about her graduate from university and also for the present, a formal suit to work, like blazer and skirt. It shows on picture 4, She shows a charm smile, triumph of her graduate, cheerfulness, creative effort because she can graduate from university although her mother just a nurse and her mother feel happy to see her daughter had finished her study from the university.


(46)

Picture 5

The last shows about joy is in the picture 5 above, Annie shows joy, beautiful smile and to be confident, and cheerfulness at the end of the story, because her mother has allowed her to do what she wants and wanted for her life to study the Anthropology, because that year there are many scholarships to study the Antropology (Annie: And once I finally, let myself say it, it was a habit that was pretty hard to break. It is-- it's going pretty good actually.

There's more scholarships out there than I thought.) And all of mothers certainly want her daughters and sons to be happy (Mother: It's okay. It's your life. Personally, I think you're making a big mistake. But it is your life. I want

you to be happy.) So, Annie tries to continue her study in Anthropology and has found many scholarships in her hand about study the Anthropology which really her dream.


(47)

d. Love

The last type of positive emotion in this analysis is Love. Love is a deep sense of acceptance and commitment to some person, object, or activity. There are five different kinds of love, including parental love, love between friends, love a child for his or her parents, patriotism or love of one’s homeland, and romantic love. 6 People bring out expressions of affectionate

behavior in young children. Childish affection is exhibited in hugging, kissing, or patting; later such overt responses tend to be replaced by verbal expressions of endearment.7

Picture 6 Picture 7

- Whoa! - Ahh ahh!

Grayer : Hello there. Annie : Hi. Are you okay?

Woman: Get off of me, you pervert.

Annie : Do you belong to anyone, little man? Mrs. X : Grayer!

Grayer : I belong to you.

(48)

Mrs. X : Grayer! Oh God. Thank you so much. You just averted a minor disaster. Let me apologize for my feral son.

Annie : Oh, no need to apologize. Please, I love kids. I'm Annie

Beside her intelligence graduated from New York University, she also has a good personality. (Annie: Oh, no need to apologize. Please, I love kids. I'm Annie) She is a kind woman. She always try to be a good girl and also to be a good friend for everyone whose there in her life. In this film she shows positive emotion of love to a child, and to help and to embrace suddenly from the accident scooter man has crossing in the park. She helps Grayer from misfortune who’s nearly hit in the accident, while she is sitting in the park. On the picture 6 and 7 and statements above; there are clear of Annie that she has a sociable feel to people.

Annie shows love in this film when she is being a nanny for Grayer in Mrs. X family. She feels love to Grayer and gets closer to be his nanny when she wants to make a meal and treats Grayer to do something to be happy like a play game and then she treats Grayer to be her friend to closer him and be a good friend (Annie : Hey, you now, we can do lots of fun things. We just have to be friends and we have to trust each other. Okay? Mmm-hmm. Maybe you

should have a secret name too? You want a secret name?) And Annie speaks how to call him with nick name/ cryptic name to a friend that really Grayer wanted and liked, such as dear, cungkring, or cicak. And then in a minute,


(49)

Grayer says yes that he wants a cryptic name (Grayer: Yeah, I want a secret name.) Annie becomes happy, because Grayer has accepted her and has answered her treat. Annie tries to mention a name like “Sponge Bob” (Annie: Okay. How about Sponge Bob? Grayer says that is bad name if Sponge Bob ((Grayer: No, silly), (Annie: No? All right, what about... what about

Grover?)) Annie mentions another name, Grover ((Grayer: Grover, I love Grover.) (Annie: You do? All right. Grover it is.)) And at the last Grayer wanted and liked Grover name if Annie wants to call him and so do Annie.

Picture 8 Picture 9

Annie shows love on the statements and picture 8 and 9 above to Grayer, she pays much attention to Grayer and tries to closer, because of her parents seldom takes notice to him and also tries to be a good nanny, too.


(50)

Picture 10

Grayer tells to Annie that he loves Annie whatever she has done. Grayer likes Annie as usual as Annie always there for him (Grayer: You know what, Nanny? I love you best) Annie has thinking first to say that she loves Grayer too, because if she remembers all of Mrs. X’s rules (Annie: The other nannies had warned me about this very moment, the moment when you'll be

tempted to break the cardinal rule of nanny Dom. And yet, staring into those

big, sad, searching eyes, I simply couldn't resist. I love you too, Grove…..

Three little words made leaving this job 1,000 times harder.) And another servant or nanny has ever remembered her to be patient to all of the happen that there is a young, and pity son wanted more attention from his parent. To say “yes, that she loves too” is more difficult to her to quit and leave Grayer alone although Annie still hates all of Mrs. X’s agreements.

On the picture 10 and statements above, Annie feels love to Grayer; she worries about Grayer’s life. She wants Grayer has not missing attention from his parents. So, Annie always tries to pleasant Grayer. Love is not


(51)

always when you have feeling on your sweetheart, but also to parents, friends, brothers or sisters. And Annie take care Grayer to be his good friend. She spends all of her time to Grayer and tries to pleasant him with her. She pays much attention to Grayer to show how she loves him, like to be his good friend and also to be a good nanny for him although there are many cruel rules of nanny rules.

Picture 11 Picture 12

On the picture 11, Annie loves her mother, although she lies to her about the job. Annie tries to be a good daughter, make her happy to find a good job. (-Annie: Come here. I love you.- Annie’s mother: Let me know the minute I can visit you.-Annie: I'll call you when I get there, okay?) Before she goes to work in summer day, she embraces her mother, to show how much she loves her mother and also her mother to decrease longing.

On the picture 12 above, the writer sees emotion of love in Annie, give a huge to her friend the expressive behavior to show love in daily life. (Annie: You know, I love you, but you're harsh. -(laughs)-A little bit. Lynette: Just give


(52)

me a hug. Mwah! I'll see you soon, I'm sure) Annie and Lynette are a best friend, their friendship so closer and Annie always share everything to Lynette, like to be a nanny, just Lynette whose know what jobs that Annie done now. Annie embraces and says love to Lynette to show that she loves her although sometimes Lynette has bored her.

Picture 13

Harvard flatters Annie with said that he wants to make a kiss to her ((Harvard H: But I do think you should probably let me kiss you right about

now.)(Annie: What?)) And then Harvard says another statement to misheard Annie, if we are near at the apartment, we can not meet again (Harvard H: Well... we're two blocks from your building. And once we get any closer, I

won't be able to go near you. Which, to tell you the truth, is all I've really

thought about since that day. I saw you in that Betsy Ross getup. (Laughs))

Harvard tells the truth that he really surprise since the first meet in lift machine last day. (Annie: That is really kinky and weird.) Annie just can say that’s day is really embarrassed her, her pants has slipped by Grayer when in lift machine to picks Grayer up from school. (Harvard H: You don't know the


(53)

half of it.) Harvard flatters Annie once again, that he really like in deep hearth since that day in lift machine while he is escorting Grayer’s stroller.

On the pictures 13 and statements above, Annie shows emotion of love to Harvard Hottie her sweetheart, a man that she knows live in the same apartment which Annie work. Actually, Annie just wants to keep Grayer, but her meeting with Harvard Hottie in apartment and in club, makes their relation to become closer and both are fall in love. Because of his tease to Annie, (Annie: Uh-huh. (Feet clomping)(Annie sighs))) Annie runs him after to the Harvard’s apartment. And Annie makes a kiss with Harvard Hottie to show that she loves him.

e. Fear

Fear comes from terror and panic to distraction and uncertainty. These emotions are produced by threat. The treat may be real such as that produced by a violent storm. A person may become frightened by a shadow passing in front of the window. One internal may frighten oneself by fantasizing that a war might start. And finally, the threat may be the loss of a source of comfort or support rather than the presence of a danger.8

Look on the picture 14 and the statements below. Mrs. X always done a bad attitude to Annie, and always make Annie in fear. Annie is as object

8


(54)

anger for Mrs. X to express all about her problems in family. Annie say yes and told that she has accepted all of Mrs. X has said and done.

Picture 14

Annie shows fear emotion when Mrs. X is suddenly coming to her room to express anger emotion. Mrs. X was walking quickly to Annie’s room and tells that underwear is Annie’s own (Mrs. X: Nanny, this is yours, is it not?) Because of Mrs. X comes with sudden and tells that like to corner her, so Annie says in fear and panic respond and then says uh… no, with nervous (Annie: Uh... no, l-- no, I don't know what that is.) Mrs. X tells to Annie that underwear for lady is in her laundry (Mrs. X: It was in our laundry. It is not mine, it is not Mr. X's, so it has to be yours, right? Right?) Annie must to say yes and in correct way to responds Mrs. X question about underwear that she doesn’t know who have it. (Annie: Yes, it's mine.) Mrs. X is remembering Annie to not let her underwear in Mrs. X’s house (Mrs. X: Please don't leave


(55)

your personal items lying around the house again.) Annie must to promise and tells that she really sorry (Annie: l-- I won't. - I promise. I'm sorry.) Annie expresses fear with panic respond, “uh…no…uh”, uncertain, and the eyes looks open wide and to goal Mrs. X wanted (Mrs. X: I don't mean... to be a control freak. It's-- it's just that when Mr. X is in the middle of a big deal, it

can be very hard on me.) (Annie: I understand.) Mrs. X tells that she doesn’t want to be angry or do something that will afraid her. She just little can’t accept what and something that really on her husband company agreement in business. The writer sees that Mrs. X as wants to exile her husband anger to Annie.

Picture 15

On the picture 15 and also the statements below, the writer sees fear emotion in Annie. (Mrs. X: Don't you dare. You stupid-- you stupid girl. As if you know anything about my life. As if you know anything about the real


(56)

mother, Mrs. X feels that Annie has interfered to her problem. Mrs. X thinks that Annie wants to know all of Mrs. X family side. Annie’s eyes open wide and respond to go far away from it because Mrs. X has spoken in high tension voice and rude, such us stupid, crazy, or fuck of you. Annie feels fear and sad, because she doesn’t want Grayer will be sad again with his parent’s bad threat to him. But Mrs. X spoken makes her to quit quickly as soon as possible. f. Disgust

The emotion of disgust is similar to the experience of spoiled food. Anything that is foul, rotten, or dirty stimulates a sense of disgust. The experience may include a shudder, nausea, a desire to spit or vomit, or a verbal “uch” or gagging sound. One common response to a disgusting act is to turn one’s face away.

Disgust includes loathing and revulsion at the high level of intensity and dislike or boredom at the low level. The function of disgust is to signal contamination. A state of disgust can be stimulated by an idea or a personality trait. One can even feel disgusted by one’s own thoughts or actions. When feelings of disgust are joined by feelings of anger, the outcome can be a very hateful rejection.9

(57)

Picture 16

On picture 16, disgusting emotion shows when Annie is looking into a refrigerator in Mrs. X house and there are stocks of Tofu. (Annie: Tofu cutlets? - Ugh. - Help yourself to anything. Yuck.) Annie expresses disgusting with say “ugh” and wants to foul and vomit something if she has eating food. g. Anger

Anger is an emotion that is accompanied by high tension level. Muscles tighten, the face feels hot, and there is a rising feeling of energy and an impulse toward action. The angrier the person becomes, the harder it is to restrain a desire for some kind of physical action.10

(58)

Picture 17

On the picture 17 above, Annie expresses anger to Hottie’s friends because all of bad spoken to Annie about her job as a nanny. Annie says that she has met Harvard from work (Annie: I know him from work.) And Harvard’s friends answers and responds in arrogant and bad attitude, likes as give to Annie mockeries about the jobs. (Oh yeah? What kind of work do you do? Model? - Stewardess? - Escort?) Hottie says that she knows Annie has working in the same place or same apartment with him. (Harvard H.: She works for someone in my building.) And then Annie says the truth that she is a nanny or baby sitter (Men: Oh. Annie: Actually, I'm a nanny). Annie becomes angry because entire statements Hottie’s friend to her. The nanny is bad and does not an interesting job to know and also has known a friend like a nanny is so tickle (A nanny?- Dude! - ( men laugh ) You didn't tell us you knew a nanny. That is so porno. - Are the moms hot? - Are you hot for the dads? - Are

the dads hot for you?) Harvard Hottie tries to escape those statements of his friends, but it can’t (-Guy, - Hey, come on.) Annie’s anger emotion becomes


(59)

high and full, she says all of everything that she doesn’t like about Mr. X attitude (- You want to know about the dads? I'll tell you about the dads) Annie says that Mr. X is a man that has a baldhead, big and fat, smoker, like a big baby and he becomes more frighten and upset to all of nanny that ever work for him. (They’re chubby, bald, steak-eating, cigar-smoking, type-A pigs who get more turned on by the Bloomberg Wire than they do by any hot

nannies.) And Annie says that all of Hottie’s friends will be like that in next years and says that all of they has done now is very good, and says thank to all of Hottie’s friends (Actually, it's all of you in about five years. So take it from me, guys: Enjoy tonight, because your future looks pretty fucking bleak)

The writer sees anger emotion on picture above, Anger usually can express with facial expression. Annie expresses protection to her self from the insult of Harvard’s friends about her job as a baby sitter, and her face seems hot. They thinks it so funny and aren’t same level like them to have a friend such a nanny (a lower class person), she expresses in handful, spoken loudly and angrily all about “father = her master”. It seems like to refuse all of whom or what can shame her.

Annie wants to serve Grayer’s foods. She has done a rebellious action, to break Mrs. X rules. Grayer has told that her mother does not allow him to eat corn-syrup a jam that has very much fat (Grayer: No, Mommy says they're full of high-fructose corn syrup.) While Annie wants to serve Grayer’s food, a


(60)

French food, but the recipes were difficult, and then a food fall down to the floor. (Annie: Well, what mommy doesn't know won't hurt her, okay, Mr. Tattletale? Eat it. Go on. Right out of the jar.) Annie tries to keep Grayer from his noisy, then she gives him a corn jam that really has a fat and says that his mother statement will not to sick and it is healthy for him.

Sometimes sadness is a reaction to an external event, especially loss. The loss may be a person, an object, an opportunity, or an ideal.

(67)

be nicer.))) She says that her apartment or Mrs. X’s house is very beautiful place and her friend is so kind and friendly. But the truths are, as the writer catches four pictures above are: her room is beside washing machine and the noise always there. (picture 25); her apartment is in narrow place, and there is just have a little bed (picture 27); out side the window is just a big wall of apartment and nothing a beautiful views (picture 26); and (on picture 28) her friend is nothing; there is just her master, Mrs. X and she is not kind but cruel.

Ever) On picture 29 and 30, Annie bows her head and avoids eye contact with her mother, because of her lie has been known by her mother. (Annie: I know. I just... Oh, Mom, I couldn't handle it anymore. - I just couldn't handle it.) Annie tries to


(68)

explain and persuade her mother, why she has taken this job and why she lies to her mother, but her mother can not accept it. She must call her mother to help Grayer from sick. It happened because of she can not overcome and becomes panic to Grayer’s illness. Mother says that Annie is a clever one, and young girl, what she can not done in her life, what is problem that she can not accepted and finished by herself, and she says all of her complicated life can accepted and finished by herself cleverness, just now and then (Mother: What? What couldn't you handle? You're young, you're smart, and you’re energetic. You got this

incredibly right future ahead of you.)

From all of descriptions above, the writer concludes that Annie Braddock is dominantly more to show positive emotions than negative. Annie expresses love and joy more and feels worry or aware to Grayer about his life. She doesn’t want Grayer to be a gloomy child again. She persuades Grayer to be happy like as persuades him to go to another place that his mother doesn’t like and eat the food that really never Grayer has eaten. She tries to close Grayer to be her friend and makes him happy in day long. She tries to help Grayer by her attention like to be a good friend for her and tries to solve Mrs. X problem although it makes her like interferer person and makes her to quit in a bad way. She tries to make Mr. and Mrs. X aware of their son who really still needs much attention in his life. Although this job is not her wish, she feels happy and then really knows who she is.
