An example of a stereotype in films is shown in the film we watched in class ‘Moonlight’, because Chiron the main character grows up and is into drugs because of his early life growing up in a rough neighbourhood with a single mother who frequently took drugs herself.
An example of a countertype in films is shown in ‘The Princess and the Frog’ because the princess Tiana is not the typical Disney princess, she has a work ethic and unlike other princesses she doesn’t come from money and has to work for what she wants.
