The Others...

the others is a subject based around stereotypes as seen in art, film, literature and of course in the media in general. the others are those that do not fit this mould of typical stereotypes but are rather things that most people don't want to see/look at because people are often scared by what they don't know or understand and they often fear it and as we know from a popular small green puppet (not kermit) that it always leads to hatred. they are often grouped into categories the three i have chosen as examples are:

The Culturally Different - Taqwacores (2010 Dir. Eyad Zahra)

The Mentaly Different - Secretary (2002 Dir. Steven Shainberg)

And The Physically Different - Darkman (1990 Dir. Sam Rami)
