5 pages in length. Women are portrayed as hostile and shrewd in both the story of Washington Irving's "Rip Van Winkle" and the movie "Five Easy Pieces," an assertion that is tantamount to patriarchal control. Inasmuch as Dame Van Winkle represents a cultural villain, one might be more inclined to side with the hero as he diligently toils to escape such oppressive social chains. As well, Robert -- the protagonist in "Five Easy Pieces" -- attempts to paint the same negative portrait of his pesky companion, Rayette, when all she wants is the respect and understanding that comes from carrying his child. The writer discusses that these female characters are portrayed as hostile and shrewd in their intent to achieve their primary objectives speaks volumes about the manner by which male dominance bleeds through past and present literary structure. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
