For this assignment, I picked the film, Muriel’s Wedding. In this movie, it mainly talks about the main character, Muriel Heslop who is socially awkward person trying to fit in wanting to get married but couldn’t get any dates living in small town and she moved to Sydney and attempted to change her life to match her fantasies she always had. In the film, it seems that the main character, Muriel was experiencing the stage of Identity Cohesion, which is the fifth stage of Erikson’s psychosocial development. While she was a socially awkward person trying to fit in a group of feminine girls and was dumped by her four friends that thought and said that Muriel is embarrassing person to hang out with and made Muriel feel that if she is good for nothing
