- Abstract
Through the brief introduction of female roles in independent films and the discussion of Cindy Sherman’s photographic works, this paper, by means of Hélène Cixous’s theoretical text and the relevant discussion of the uncertainty of postmodernism, explores the deconstruction thought behind the writing and display of the female body, the weapon of anti-male gaze.
