The article page features the model (Natalie Portman) and talks about her upcoming rise in fame
as she takes on acting roles as Anne Frank and Padme in the Star Wars franchise. In 1997,
through the use of cinematography and mise en scene she is depicted as an innocent young
women. This is also represented through the light pink and white colour scheme which are
known to connote purity. The photograph on the right page is one which shows the models
features, her cheekbones pop, her lips and long hair are all attractive features which appeal to
both the female and male gazes. (As the females want to be like her and the males are attracted to
her). The image in the top left of the article page shows a more real side of the actress making
the audience feel more connected through the pictures.
