North Korea accused the US of encouraging terrorism by allowing the release of the film and the US directly accused North Korea of hacking Sony (the film\u2019s distributor). This thesis is interested in the unorthodox take on depicting North Korea, especially the representations and political satire in the film. I utilize a modified version of Joseph M. Boggs and Dennis W. Petrie\u2019s film analysis and its humanistic and genre approaches. I combine these to a representational and political reading of the film. The research questions considered in this work are: how is North Korean regime represented in the film the Interview? How do aspects of satire and humor enable political critique of North Korean dictatorship?\n\nThis thesis uses the analysis and an example of previous dictator satire to highlight the existence of a satirical tradition that makes fun of dictators by caricatures of fragile masculinity. I demonstrate how Kim Jong Un is made recognizable as a human by portraying him as secretly pro-American and struggling with \u201cfather issues\u201d. Through satire he is positioned as a fundamentally unfit leader, who seeks to remedy anxiety around his sexuality and status as a man with violence and full-scale war. The representations of passivity, stagnation, and othering connected to ordinary North Koreans are used to critique North Korean regime rather than the people. The regime is portrayed as ridiculous.\n\nWith the help of my analysis, I demonstrate how the representation of North Korea is stereotypical in many aspects while in some it does differ from the established representations. The film uses humor to attach negative elements to the regime and Kim instead of North Korea or its people as a whole. It also subtly imagines a partnership between the US and North Korea. Humor enables a more palatable and less uncomfortable conversation by ignoring heavier elements and focusing on Kim as a human and the regime as ridiculous and ready to be accidentally taken down by incompetent people.", "language": "en", "element": "description", "qualifier": "abstract", "schema": "dc"}, {"key": "dc.description.provenance", "value": "Submitted by Paivi Vuorio (paelvuor@jyu.fi) on 2025-06-03T08:05:31Z\nNo. of bitstreams: 0", "language": "en", "element": "description", "qualifier": "provenance", "schema": "dc"}, {"key": "dc.description.provenance", "value": "Made available in DSpace on 2025-06-03T08:05:31Z (GMT).
