Working title My text was Wonder Woman which was released in 2017. The working title for my project is "How do films such as Wonder Woman reflect the changing representation of women in Hollywood movies?".  Angle My main topic is "The changing portrayal of females in movies" which I will be focusing on throughout my project.
