Interpretation of Female Characters in Oriol Paulo’s Movies—Take “The Invisible Guests” and “The Body” as Examples

Abstract

In recent years, Spanish suspense films, represented by the suspense trilogy directed by Oriol Paulo, have made remarkable achievements in the Chinese market. “The Body” is the first thriller and suspense film directed by Oriol Paulo independently. “The Invisible Guest” made him achieve extraordinary achievements in the Chinese film market as soon as it was released. In addition to the gripping plots, the female characters in the two representative works are also worthy of our interpretation. In this paper, through indepth analysis of the key female roles in the two films, combined with related research results, we try to dig out the feminist discourse hidden in the films. At the same time, we also hope that through the discussion of female roles in the film, we can call for the real awakening of social female power.
