Movies visual representation and present real-life effects. A movie may
have signs in each scene that have a different meaning than what is depicted.
The researcher are interested in describing the movie titled Satu Suro (2019)
because this movie is classified as a horror film whereas previous studies have
focused more on comedy. This research is worth doing because the characters
in the movie will be elaborated on using a semiotic approach based on Barthes'
concepts of denotation, connotation, and myth.
In this research, the researcher used the descriptive qualitative method
to analyze and describe the meanings using Barthes’ concept in several
scenes of the Satu Suro movie. Furthermore, the researcher provides various
types of signs such as in the pictures and dialog between the characters.
The results found are that several signs appear in the Satu Suro movie
so researchers get to how the author displays denotations, connotations, and
myths and also find out the meanings that exist in the movie. The researcher
found ten pieces of data to be analyzed based on the theory of Roland Barthes
and then analyzed what meanings were contained in the data. From some of
that data, the researcher discovered the meaning of denotation, connotation,
and myth in the Satu Suro movie.
From these two statements of problems, it can be seen that the author
of Satu Suro shows several signs through several scenes, the way the shots
are taken, and the conversations or dialog between the players. Furthermore,
there are also several scenes that show denotation, connotation, and myth in
accordance with the theory of Roland Barthes.
