Abstract

This study observes the illocutionary acts in the film "Midway" (2019) through the point of view of pragmatics and cultural context. By applying Austin’s and Leech’s speech act theory, the research identifies and categorizes various illocutionary acts and their functions performed by characters throughout the film. This research uses qualitative method in analyzing the movie. The analysis highlights how these acts contribute to the narrative and character development. In addition, the study examines the cultural and historical settings depicted in the film, considering how they influence and shape the illocutionary acts. This dual approach uncovers the interplay between language, culture, and context, providing a deeper understanding of communication dynamics in "Midway."
