The purpose of the current study is to shed light on the ethos of the American dream in Theodore Melfi’s Film Hidden Figures (2016) which depicts the struggle of African-American women to achieve their American dream. This study is based on two main hypotheses. The first states that for African-American women, the American dream is nothing but an illusion. The second hypothesis states that African-American women can achieve the American dream through hard work and determination. To analyse the on-screen discourse; we have adopted Thematic Analysis (Braun & Clarke, 2006) which enables us to identify explicit and latent patterns and themes. The analysis of on-screen discourse reveals that the first hypothesis is refuted, while the second is confirmed. |
