Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,7, Ruhr-University of Bochum (Englisches Seminar), course: Skin Deep - Beauty, Bodies and Business, WS 2005/2006, language: English, abstract: In Robert Iscove's 'She's all that' beauty ideals and beauty standards play a major role and the submission of Laney to these standards and ideals is the reason why Zack falls in love with her. That is why I am going to argue that in Robert Iscove's movie ideals of white, middle-class, male society are taken as a basis to prove that submission to these standards is the only way for women to be accepted by men.
