CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION
1.1 General Background of the Study
As social creatures, we are created to live together with other people. We can not only live individually because we sometimes need other people’s help. So, there is
a long lasting connection between one people to the others. It grows stronger every time each of them makes a contact.
According to Lunberg et al 1968: 8, “the life of society is characterized by social norms, action systems, and material interaction.” He further says that the
term interaction refers to “the mutual and reciprocal influence exerted by two or more persons or group, upon each other’s expectation and behaviour.” However,
living in society is not as easy as it seems. As human, we have to adapt with our environment in order to know each
other because we are living in a complex of society who has different culture and way of live. We sometimes have difficulties to interact and adapting ourselves in
it. The main cause is because people with whom we live have various characteristics.
Adaptation is necessary for us. It is needed in every field of life, for example, family, social life, organization, workplace, etc. adaptation is a way of
human to make their life easier because it makes people closer to each other. We agree that human can not live alone, because we always need other people’s help.

So, when we make adaptation to our environment and we have a lot of relationship with people. It makes our social life better.
From social life, it can be obtained some values. Although those values cannot be applied at the same time, but there is a chance that those values become
the solution for the problems in another time. In the modernization and development of technology, literary work might
be presented in the form of motion picture or movie by applying technology of audiovisual. Motion pictures or movie becomes the most popular and fascinating
entertainment, since the picture does not stand still at one scene but it moves forward together.
1.2 Reasons for Choosing the Topic
By watching film The Devil Wears Prada which represents some frame of human daily life, we can see how hard it is for Andrea to adapt with the new
world that she does not know before. Because, Andrea believes that if she can at least one year work as Mirandas assistant, she will be able to achieve her goal of
becoming a writer for The New Yorker. The Devil Wears Prada gives a rich and hilarious new meaning to plaints about The Boss from Hell.” and bring a good
impression to the writer and it has something to offer to the reader. This film gives us a bright thought that if we have goals and we believe that we can achieve
them, there will be a way for them The exertions and success of Andrea impress the writer very much because
as a matter of fact, Andrea starts her carrier in fashion magazine
