Gender, Race and Ethnicity- on this website there is a lot of information on Islam and the media which relates as in Pretty Persuasion, one of the main girls is Muslim, so this will help me to expand my interpretation of the representation

Media Ed - There is an article on this website on "women representing women" which talks about how the gender of the director of the film can affect the representation the audience see

BFI- On this site i found a 16+ guide on strong women. I can use this as the main protagonist in the film is seen as being strong and dominating
