In a society such as ours, with high levels of gender-based violence and public performances of misogyny, it is important to reflect on the impact that representations of hyper-masculinity in the media has on society, as it has the power to shape values, norms and perceptions.
Skyfall - Adelle
Introduction
Skyfall is the twenty-third film in the James Bond series, produced by EON Productions and distributed by MGM and Sony Pictures Entertainment through its Columbia Pictures division. It features Daniel Craig's third performance as James Bond, and Javier Bardem as Raoul Silva, the film's antagonist. The film was directed by Sam Mendes and written by John Logan, Neal Purvis and Robert Wade. As a stand-alone adventure, it doesn't directly continue the story arc of Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace but does occur within the same continuity.
In the film, Bond's loyalty to M is tested as her past comes back to haunt her. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost.

In recent years, the world has acquired a better understanding of violence than ever
before in human history. Whether it is violence by men against women, or by parents and
other adults against children, we now have globally valid, representative, comparative
research across most of the world’s countries. We know that about one in three women
will experience or has experienced physical or sexual violence from a male partner or
another man. And we know that about three-quarters of the world’s children experience
some form of violence each year.
