The document discusses several film theories including auteur theory, which argues that a director's films reflect their artistic vision. It provides Edgar Wright as an example of an auteur due to his consistent visual themes. Reception theory is explained as how audiences interpret creative works based on their own social contexts. The male gaze theory proposes that women are presented in media primarily for the erotic pleasure of male viewers. Megan Fox's role in Transformers is analyzed as an example of being subjected to the male gaze through over-sexualization.
