I haven't seen this film of Jane's yet so I don't want to spoil it by watching this video but man your content deserves way more views, this video and in general (because in general its quality) and I love what Jane does in shit like The Piano...that's woman pervert kino right there

Have you watched the film, yet?

When people use the words _male gaze_ , in reality they actually refer to with what a woman thinks a man's outlook on the world might be. So I always wondered whether the opposite was also true. That screenplay was really eye opening for me in that regard. It was something I never ( or rather didn't want to) thought about..

You don't understand what the term 'the male gaze' means...it has nothing to do with what a woman thinks a man's outlook on the world might be, in fact, it has nothing to do with a mans outlook on the world at all. Go back to the beginning and read about Laura Mulvey's Male Gaze Theory.

@@AnthonyMonaghan You can twist words to fit your narrative all you want but I used the dictionary definition _the perspective of a notionally typical heterosexual man_
