THE WOLF OF WALL STREET gender rep

The Wolf of wall-street uses many outdated representations of gender on order to tell the life story of stock broker Jordan Bellfort. The poster features these representations heavily. The foreground of the poster puts the films male lead Leonardo DiCaprio in a dominant position. In the background of the poster the left side is heavy dominated by women dressed in scantily clad clothing. They wear high heels in order to draw attention to the calves and female leg line. This appeals to men who would fantasies about those women.
