Abstract

Irony Movies and comedy are a popular part of Iranian cinema. A review of the best-selling films in the history of Iranian cinema also reveals the comedic appeal of the various social spectrum. Although journalistic critiques have been made for reviewing various comedy films, there is still a lack of sociological studies in this area. This study aims to address the sociological study of Texas comedy film: How do Texas film makers use audiences? What are the social issues this film addresses? The present study is descriptive-analytical and has used qualitative content analysis method for film analysis. The results of this study show that the film uses more elements of stereotypes and dissonance to attract audiences
