The dialectical theory of connectedness versus autonomy is used by Ilsa and Rick in the movie Casablanca. When Ilsa and Rick first met they both wanted to be a little more independent and be their own individual. However, as the relationship grew Ilsa and Rick became more and closer towards the end of the movie. Their autonomy diminishes throughout the movie.

At the same time, rebellious characters such as The Director 's son John or Bernard Marx are used to highlight an outsider 's view on World State, and how extensively the loyal
The example from the movie would be the courtroom if anything. The court in the town, which they never had until people started changing colors, is basically one big interrelated system. The final theoretical perspective from the movie would be the biggest one, which is Conflict Theory.

The film demonstrates how and why particular facts about the social world relate. I believe that this film has a functionalist perspective.
