الملخص

This dissertation will investigate Rod Lurie’s The Last Castle (2001) from a Foucauldian perspective. The dialectic of power and knowledge forms the gist of his critical theory that tries to explain how different modern social institutions like prisons aim at controlling individuals. Since some movies reflect the real state of societies to a large extent, The Last Castle (2001) will be analyzed from a foucauldian stance to better understand how authorities exert power to produce docile bodies. Indeed, in order to determine the extent to which Rod Lurie’s work meets with Foucault ideas. This dissertation will follow Foucault’s theory of power as explained in his book Discipline and Punish: the Birth of the Prison (1991). Foucault’s concepts like Discipline, surveillance, panopticon and resistance are to be discussed in this dissertation to explain how the prisoners in The Castle are treated badly and aimed to become docile and conformist and how resistance is created from the abuse of power. Throughout our investigation, we have found that The Last Castle reflects Foucault’s ideas of the omnipresence of power and highlighted the way resistance is created as a response to power.
