Other Text - 'The Terminator' (1984)

'The Terminator' (1984) Directed by James Cameron.

Plot - A machine that looks human is sent back in time to the late 20th century. His mission is to kill Sarah Connor and her unborn son, John Connor. Doing so would result in having John's entire existence destroyed so he won't exist to help the humans fight a war against the machines. Kyle Reese, one of the soldiers in this war, has been sent back in time to stop the Terminator.

Arnold Schwarzenegger... The Terminator - The Protagonist.-

I will be referring to ‘The Terminator’ because this shows and proves that womens roles in actions films have changed. As you can see men were seen more dominant and had all the leading roles, for instance in 'RoboCop' (1986). This shows and reinforces the fact that society was much more patriarchy, but now this has all changed as their are many action films with leading females roles.
