Analisis resepsi audiens remaja terhadap romantisme film Dilan 1990

Abstract

Dilan 1990 film with the segmentation of teenage audience created euphoria among Indonesian teenagers. The romantic theme of the Dilan 1990 film, which carried out a romantic life of adolescents who lived in 1990, received many teenagers’ responses in Indonesia. Many of them use scenes from the film as memes on social media and even use dialogues from the movie characters to communicate. This research analysed teenage audiences’ reception in the current millennial era towards teenagers’ romanticism in the year 1990 that was carried in the Dilan 1990 film. The researcher conducted the reception analysis method and interviewed five teenage informants. The results showed several interpretations of the youth audience towards romanticism in the Dilan 1990 film. The things that were interpreted as romanticism in the 1990 film Dilan included ‘Bandung As a City of Romance’, ‘Crying Figures as a Form of Gloom’, ‘Longing is Heavy’,’ Overflowing Love ‘, and’ Unique Romance in Character’s Words’. The dominant teenage audience reading position was the dominant- hegemonic position and negotiated position. The meaning of romanticism by a teenage audience based on these two positions was influenced by each informant’s sociological factors who had a different background from the theme raised in the Dilan 1990 film.
