Abstract

Talking about mothers, there are several types of mothers that are seen by biological and social aspects. The types are biological, surrogate, and adoptive mother. The concept of mothers becomes an issue that is conveyed in the Mama movie. The movie tells a story about two women who play a role as a mother. Both women are not the children‟s biological mother, but they love the children very much like their own children. Mama movie is important to be analyzed because it emphasizes the concept of mother diachronically. In the movie there are two woman characters who can be compared and contrasted. They show the central and marginal concept. This research has addressed the nature of ideal mother figures. This research is purposed to describe the contrasts of woman characters: Annabel and Edith in Mama. This research is a qualitative research, and it uses a case study as the strategy of inquiry. A close reading strategy and audio-visual technique are applied to collect the data. The analysis uses an objective approach and uses the binary opposition theory by Claude Levis-Strauss. Furthermore, the writer applies the film theory to analyze the pictures in the movie. The type of this research is library research. The result of this research is that binary oppositions that are found show relation about the ideal mother. Seen from children‟s side and this modern era, the ideal mother figure is Annabel. Besides, the flawed mother figure is Edith. On the other hand, Annabel represents the culture, but Edith represents the nature. Both culture and nature in the movie are balance. Key Words: Binary Oppositions, the Contrasts of Woman Characters, the Ideal Mother Figure
