The swinging sixties stereotyped females as housewives and males as dominant, and intelligent. The Sound of Music confirms to this stereotype, as the female is given a maternal role- to look after the children and sing with them. Aslo, the clothes she is wearing makes her seem reserved and almost 'obidient'.
However, the film The Manchurian Canidate, shows a complete differnt view of females. She is seen as dominat, through her body langauge, as she is tanding up giving orders to the male who is itting down, and listening to her.
