a funny thing happened on the way to the forum
In the film " A funny thing happened on the way to the forum" many stereotypes are used against every character. It wasn't until this prompt that I actually sat back and thought about them. while watching the film I enjoyed the humor and did not pay attention to negative connotations each character portrayed. all of the woman are giving the stereotype of sex objects and men of all ages and social status are pigs and perverted. on top of this the men are all stupid and are easily fooled for our entertainment and the woman who are not seen as sex objects are all smarted than men and more powerful. looking at this film as a comedy is the most you can expect, anything more this film can be very offensive.
