Abstract

Diplomski rad istražuje kompleksnu interakciju između političke korektnosti i dodjele Oscara tijekom 21. stoljeća. S rastućom osjetljivošću na društvene, rodne i kulturne teme, filmska industrija postaje prostor dubokih promjena i refleksije. Dodjela Oscara, kao vrhunsko priznanje filmskog stvaralaštva, postavlja pitanje o utjecaju političke korektnosti na odabir pobjednika. Kroz analizu sadržaja dobitnika u ključnim kategorijama Najbolji film, Najbolji redatelj, Najbolji glumac, Najbolja glumica, Najbolji sporedni glumac, Najbolja sporedna glumica, Najbolji originalni scenarij, Najbolji prilagođeni scenarij istraživanje analizira elemente političke korektnosti poput LGBTQ+ zastupljenosti te rasne i spolne diskriminacije. Ovo istraživanje pruža dublje razumijevanje uloge političke korektnosti u suvremenom filmu te otvara vrata raspravi o reprezentaciji u filmskoj umjetnosti. Rezultati se očekuju da će osvijetliti dinamiku između društvenih trendova, umjetničke vrijednosti i odabira dobitnika Oscara. Kroz ovu analizu, rad doprinosi većem razumijevanju utjecaja političke korektnosti na prestižnu dodjelu filmskih nagrada i potiče daljnje promišljanje o inkluzivnosti u umjetničkom izričaju.

Abstract (english)

The thesis explores the complex interaction between political correctness and the Oscars during the 21st century. With growing sensitivity to social, gender and cultural issues, the film industry is becoming a space of profound change and reflection. The Oscars, as the ultimate recognition of filmmaking, raises the question of the influence of political correctness on the selection of winners. By analyzing the content of the winners in the key categories Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Original Screenplay, Best Adapted Screenplay, the research analyzes elements of political correctness such as LGBTQ+ representation and racial and gender discrimination. This research provides a deeper understanding of the role of political correctness in contemporary film and opens the door to the discussion of representation in film art. The results are expected to illuminate the dynamics between social trends, artistic value and the selection of Oscar winners. Through this analysis, the paper contributes to a greater understanding of the influence of political correctness on the prestigious awarding of film awards and encourages further reflection on inclusivity in artistic expression.
