ROMANTICIZING ILLNESS: REPRESENTATION OF LOVE AND DISEASE IN MIDNIGHT SUN (2018) AND MEET ME AFTER SUNSET (2018)
type: Thesis
type: Article
abstract: This study aims to find out how love and disease are represented as discourse in Midnight Sun (2018) and Meet Me After Sunset (2018) films. The main object of comparison is the character Katie from Midnight Sun and Gadis in Meet Me After Sunset. How the discourse of disease and love is constructed simultaneously in the stories of Katie and Gadis’ characters with different social and cultural backgrounds is crucial to probe because discourses convey and create power and hierarchy. This study compares two characters with the rare disease of Xeroderma Pigmentosum that makes them sensitive to sunlight, and they are experiencing the teenage phase of falling in love. This study employs comparative methods which are very important in how different socio-cultures can influence the discourse on love and illness. Discourses and constructs regarding love and illness in popular literature cannot be fully understood without referring to gender and socio-culture. Illness is romanticized in Meet Me After Sunset and Midnight Sun. In the Indonesian context, the discourse of love as freedom is less obvious. In contrast, the discourse of isolation and the lack of agency are more pronounced compared to the American counterpart because of the differences in cultural patterns that operate in both films. The discourse of illness in both stories leads to a binary gender hierarchy that associates masculinity with health, while femininity is associated with illness. The isolation caused by disease can also be associated with domestic femininity, which then becomes the idealized value of femininity in both films.
