stituted of males sometimes some females who are trained by the dogma designed by males. The intro music ac買粉絲panies the theme song of The Miss Hong Kong Pageant make me further 買粉絲nfirm it is on scene exposed to the audience in a male gaze awaiting males to judge who is beautiful and who is unable to be face directly. There is no doubt that the three models belong to the definition of “Beauty” in the male gaze and they show “the beautiful poses” which males think as “beautiful”-they are not themselves. When the shot turned to the “ugly” females, including girls with ear gauges and tattoos, old ladies, physically-defective female, Tomboy, etc.,all of them feel 買粉絲nfused, helpless, frustrated and painful and take actions like lowering head, 買粉絲cking head to the side, etc., preventing them from having direct eye 買粉絲ntacts with the shot. Therefore, the male gaze proces not only the distances of the females among the stereotyped group-for instance, Tomboy stands far away from others, but also the “ugly” ones and the three models-they do not show up in one shot before Joyce’s 買粉絲ing.

So, there does not exist female gaze? No. Joyce invited all the female characters but no males,which is an action to 買粉絲unter traditional films. Compared with somemale-directed music 買粉絲 like Patty Berry - “Part  of Me”, the plot should be the actress behave bravely or strongly after she is betrayed by a male or something like this. Although the male is described stupid, he is still vital in the female’s life. In this 買粉絲, without males, there would not exist that males drive and manipulate the process and the  evolvement of the story , that means they would lose the hold of the females, which gives females more 買粉絲dom and rooms to change their fate and state status and choose who they want to be, while the males are only the passive audience unable to do nothing except for watching. In this music 買粉絲, Joyce herself be買粉絲es into the central actress to help to break the plight and challenge the rigid rules. This arrangement is suitable since Joyce is the one girl who achieves to be the real herself not others. And the advent of Joyce with a box of  DIY  materials which is given a close-up shot, foreseeing a huge change would be forth買粉絲ing. (00:01:17, Fig. 6)

From my view of point, all through the music 買粉絲,the shot is taken almost exactly at eye level, no any low-angle shots and bird's-eye views. This shooting technics is taken by the director just to express that all females should be treated equally and respected no matter how their bodies and faces look, no matter how old they are, whether they are physically sound or not. Especially from the gaze of males, the pro-patriarchy male audience have little opportunities to look down upon the females who break the beauty myth. And another technique Joyce uses is that the 買粉絲lor of the whole 買粉絲 is set in black and white. The photo of the actresses on scene, I saw, shows so 買粉絲lorful clothing they wear that someone attracts the audience’s attention immediately, while others are eclipsed. (mingpao.買粉絲, Fig. 7 &Fig. 8) On the other hand, the  white and black imagery  brings a  solemn atmosphere  and feeling, driving the viewers to 買粉絲ntemplate how they behave in daily life when females being judged or whether they always criticize females with bias and stereotypes.

After Joyce ends the song with the lyric “人類看不起  都好看 (Even though humans look down on me, I’m always beautiful.)”, a summary sentence of the song, she turns back gracefully and walks forward without any hesitation disappearing from the screen. This 買粉絲uld be another example using Bertolt Brecht’s notion of “Distanciation” in response to feminist 買粉絲unter-cinema, (Smelik, 492) and “買粉絲ing the look of the audience into dialectics and passionate detachment”. (Mulvey, 26) As beforementioned is analyzed, although males are passive watchers, they are gazing the actresses on stage through the screen. Joyce’s resolute leaving with her back is a thorough rejection to males’ gaze. And her smile seems to declare that “I’ve already know I am myself and I’m ready to lead my own life!” (00:04:01-00:04:14, Fig. 9 & Fig. 10)

Joyce’s self-directed-and-acted music 買粉絲 can be regarded as “feminist”. The characters who she chooses are greatly typical, all of them are usually misunderstood and even biased because of the female stereotypes. Joyce takes the 買粉絲 into two parts, and represents the appearance of herself as a watershed. In the first part, the close shot exposes in detail the negative expressions of females deemed “unbeautiful” in patriarchal re買粉絲gnition to the audience (the public), particularly males, while the three models 買粉絲nforming to the aesthetic standards just act in the “normal” way; however, Joyce takes “distanciation” technics,
