Abstract

Joy is a movie that tells about the struggles of a single parent named Joy Mangano. As a single parent, she is firm and independent. Traditionally, men only own the nature of masculinity while women own the feminine nature, but in this movie the nature is exchanged. Joy, the heroine of this movie, has a feminine appearance, but she acts like a man. When she is with her family, she becomes feminine, but when she is in her business, she turns her personality into masculine. From that problem, this research aims to analyze how the masculinity in women’s body can be interchangeable. This study applied the qualitative method with the theory of female masculinity proposed by Judith Halberstam and R.W Connell that is designed to reveal and to explain the masculinity of Joy Mangano character in Joy movie. The researcher also uses movie theory to read the frames. The result of this analysis found that Joy Mangano character has masculinity in herself. This masculinity is not innate but nurture. Female masculinity in this research aims to show the equality between a woman and a man. The image of masculinity that sticks to Joy in this movie shows that she is powerful, independent, and dominant.
