abstract: This study analyses the application of Grice's Cooperative Principle (1975)
through maxim flouting in Kamala Khan's dialogue in the film Ms. Marvel. The
research examines how communicative deviations from conversational maxims
generate implicit meanings and achieve pragmatic functions within cinematic
discourse. This research applied the qualitative method with descriptive
interpretation of the data. This study uses primary data directly from the 2022 Ms.
Marvel series. The findings reveal systematic flouting across all four maxims in
twenty-five identified instances. Flouting the maxim of quantity occurs in seven
cases (four cases of giving more information and three cases of giving less
information). Quality maxim flouting appears in seven cases employing hyperbole
(three), meiosis (one), irony (one), patent falsehood (one), and rhetorical questions
(one). Flouting the maxim of relation with eight cases of saying something
irrelevant responses, while manner maxim flouting occurs in three instances
involving obscurity and ambiguity. This pattern indicates Kamala Khan's
preference for topic diversion and irrelevant responses as primary mechanisms for
social negotiation and conflict avoidance strategies. The conversational
implicatures generated through flouting the maxim demonstrate remarkable
complexity, encompassing frustration expression, emotional support provision,
humor creation, sensitive topic avoidance, friendship intimacy demonstration, and
adolescent identity exploration. These multidimensional implicit meanings
illustrate the pragmatic sophistication of maxim flouting in generating nuanced
communicative content that surpasses literal discourse effectiveness. The study
concludes that systematic maxim flouting serves as a sophisticated communicative
strategy for character development, particularly in representing adolescent social
interactions and identity negotiation within contemporary cinematic narratives.
