Abstract


This paper discusses the manifestation of body consumption in domestic films, and focuses on the relationship between body im_x005fage, aesthetic standards and self-identity. Through the analysis of a series of domestic films, this paper finds the multiple manifestations of
body consumption in films, including the portrayal of the character’s body image, the presentation of aesthetic standards and the interaction
between the character and self-identity. The article also delves into how these representations are influenced by socio-cultural contexts, market demands and audience expectations. Finally, the paper puts forward suggestions on shaping a positive body image, expanding aesthetic
standards and strengthening self-identity to promote a more comprehensive and profound presentation of the theme of body consumption in
domestic films.
