摘要

本文嘗試以女性自覺意識的分析視角為出發點，探討當代女性在親密關係、成長自覺、自我認同與職場工作受社會文化之潛在影響。影片《雙面情人》以時空命運轉換的雙軌道切入，觀影者在探索愛情內在時，會觀察到其中女性依附、期望、揭露、自覺與成長無不圍繞男性而轉的意識型態；《玫瑰戰爭》則以最初相愛爾後憎恨，繼而失焦毀滅的婚姻，探討夫妻間心靈與物質的本質；作者在文內擬釐析，委身於文化規範或承諾等因素受制的一方，在不對稱下的愛情與婚姻中自我何在，以探究影片中深層蘊含的矛盾與曖昧性歧視。全文分三個層面：一、女性自覺過程的觀察與釐析；二、夫妻性別權力與資源關係探討；三、親密關係的反身性思考；準此，本研究目的分為：1.透過電影反思現實生活，思考解讀與詮釋兩性關係，提供學生反身性思考。2.引導學生由電影省思性別議題、意識型態在社會建構下的再現。3.提供學生認識電影影像與現實之間的思考及傳達的社會實踐。

This essay examines the potential influences of social culture on contemporary women in intimate relationship, growth and self-awareness, and self-identification and workplace from the perspectives of women's self-awareness and self-consciousness. The film Sliding Door departs from the shift in time-space and fate. When examining the issue of love, the audience will observe that women's attachment, expectation, disclosure, self-awareness, and growth in the film are centered on men's ideology. In The war of the Roses, however, it examines the essence of spirit and material of the couple, who loves each other at first but ends up hating each other, resulting in out-focused and doomed marriage. The author would like to analyze how to fathom the self when one is trapped in cultural norms and promises, and in asymmetric relationship of love and marriage in order to discuss the paradox and gender discrimination embedded in the films. This essay falls into three sections: A. the observation and analysis of the process of women’s self-awareness; B. the gender and power of the couple and the examination of their relation to resources; and C. the reflexive thinking of intimate relationship. In sum, the purposes of this research are threefold: 1. rethink the everyday life situations in reality from the films to ponder upon gender relationships and provide students space for reflexive thinking; 2. guide the students to ponder upon gender issues, ideology, and the re-presentation of social construction seen in the films; and 3. inspire the students to think about the images in the films and reality, and the social practice communicated in them.
