Why do you think filmmakers continue to use stereotypes, even when they can be harmful or inaccurate? Explain one reason discussed in class and give your opinion on whether this justifies their use.

 One big reason is quick storytelling. Movies only have so much time, so writers sometimes rely on stereotypes as a shortcut. If an audience already “thinks they know” a certain type of character like the strict parent, the rebellious teen, or the “mysterious outsider, the film doesn’t have to spend as much time developing them.
