My Perception On The Movie-Starwars Episode 3:Revenge Of The Sith

In this movie, I learn a lot of knowledge of interpersonal communication. First, the Lord of Sith used the identity management in his communication. He used this strategy to influence how others view him. For example, he became chancellor in that society but he is also the head of the dark side. This means that he got multiple indentities in that society. Besides, he also use this strategy with deliberate to get the trustworthy from Anakin.

Second, Anakin is a low self-esteem person because he always worry about the life of his wife. For example, he always think that his wife, Padme, will be died due to the fate. Because of that, he always feel stressful in his life. So, he is easily influence by the chancellor because of his negative thoughts.

Third, self-fulfiling prophecy also appear in Anakin's mind. He trust the expectation, the death of his wife, is true. Because of the expectation, his future behavior totally change all which is from a good person change to be a bad person. This is because he behaving in accordance with that expectation. For example, he want to save his wife from death, so he act according to the orders from the chancellor.

Fourth, realistic expectation also occurs in the mind of Anakin. Because of too much of expectations, he start to change his self-concept which is from a kind person to a realistic person. For example, he killed all the person including children from Jedi to achieve his lust. He think that he can ruling the Galaxy and make thing he want to be. This can prove that realistic bring his anger and lust of power to become like that. Last, power of communication can affect a person view. For example, the chancellor effectively used the power of communication to control the acts of Anakin. He used that strategy to confuse the mind of Anakin and make Anakin totally trust on him. In addition, he asked Anakin go for war to bring peace to the Republic. On the other hand, the war is just a tool for him to get more power to ruling the whole Galaxy. Since, this prove that he is smart in using the power of communication to make Anakin become his apprentice.

In my conclusion, this movie is very interesting for me because it make me more understand the power of communication can drive a person to be good or to be bad.

STAR WARS

In the star wars episode III, the most drastic changes happens to the character of Anakin Skywalker. Anakin in the beginning of the story is kind, however, in the end of the story, he has turn into the dark side. This changes is all because of power and he even hurt his beloved. Based on this drastic changes, I can say that, my perception towards Anakin in the beginning of the story is wrong because I think that he is good, but he is not.

Besides that, this movie also has focus on masculine culture. This is due to the wars that involves many man and the committee of The Jedi Council also are all dominated by man. So, this shows that masculine culture is there. Based on this war also, we can say that there is a high power distance occur in this movie. The Chancellor is the one that has the power and caused all the wars. Others who has less power are very hard to stop it. Anakin beloved has once asked Anakin to tell Chancellor to stop the wars. So this shows that the chancellor is the one with high power.

Next, there is also a complimentary relationship. This happens between Anakin and his beloved, in which, Anakin loves wars in order to get the power, however, his beloved don’t like it. The contrast traits in them shows that they have a complimentary relationship.
