Abstract

The Warrior’s Way movie presents both of East and West. The East is represented by the group of ninjas named Sad Flute and The West is represented by the inhabitants of Lode Paris of West. In this movie ninjas play a role as assassins whose duty is to kill enemy in order to reach their ambition to the strongest clan. One day, one of Sad Flute ninjas named Yang did a great mistake by saving son of the enemy. Yang then escaped to Lode Paris of West. In this foreign place for Yang as an Eastern, he is treated well by Western people. There differences between Yang’s original land and the city, he escapes are clearly seen. The distinction establishes an issue of Orientalism how The Warrior’s Way movie portrays East and West through characters and settings. This study analyzes this phenomenon by applying Post-Colonial theoretical lens. Meanwhile, Orientalism approach is used to explain how East and West are portrayed in the movie. The method of this study is descriptive qualitative by conducting library research. As a result, this study finds that the distinction between the portrayal of East and West in this movie emphasizes primitiveness, and despotism of East besides the democratic of West. In addition the study also finds East-West binary opposition to emphasize the distinction between them. Keywords: east, west, postcolonial, orientalism.
