Laura Mulvey argues that classical Hollywood cinema is structured to provide visual pleasure for the (presumed male) viewer by objectifying and fetishizing the female form. She claims that narrative films are organized around the male gaze and the active male protagonist, positioning women as passive objects of this gaze which satisfies unconscious castration anxiety. Mulvey proposes that psychoanalytic techniques could be used to analyze the ideological underpinnings of visual pleasure in mainstream films and to develop a feminist counter-cinema that disrupts and restructures dominant modes of scopophilia.
