Me and Paula had a 2 day movie night and watched Heather’s on Netflix. It was a very strange film, and we saw a few connections to Linguistics. First we noticed that they used a lot of language that we do not use much today such as “Salutations” when saying hello to someone or “fuck me gently with a chainsaw” when referring to being offended by another person. As we watched the film we also saw one of the actors compare two styles of saying “tomato”. They also used “awesome” and “cool” and “totally” more than we hear on average today. The film tends to use English in their own purpose and sense. For example, being called a “heather” at Western berg high school was the coolest thing to be named. They changed an average named to signify something of their own in the film. This film refers back to linguistics because we have spoken how English is an extremely complicated language because people use it in their own sense and you can make sense of phrases in so many different ways. The language in this film also makes a statement that the type of language you use defines whether you are cool and popular or not. There were names given to the unpopular fat, nerdy, or out of the circle kids and the “popular” kids were talked to differently and referred to differently as well. even though the movie was a litttleeee creepy, it was a good entertaining movie!
