The use of Male gaze

This theory is by Lauran Mulvey who states that in films women are typically the object, rather than the possessors. The gaze is expressed by the use of camera, it says that men are watchers and women are watched despite the fact that women are now being considered as main protagonists , they are still being watched upon more likely in a negative light.
The film Psycho have filmed the famous shot in the bathroom which invades privacy  and also in Carrie.

In our trailer we have included this theory when Casey is in bed having her dreams, as her clothing are quite revealing, this provokes and supports Male Gaze. Also when Casey is fixing herself up in the bathroom.
