Bourdieu (2012), Traquina (2003,2004,2005) and Pereira (2008) are the major reference of this analysis. Through Bardin’s (2016) contente analysis it was possible to define categories capable to synthesize the major points related to these women in the movies.It were analyzed matters like: representation of the journalistic organization, private life, muliebrities and presence of female journalists in power positions.In reference of cinematographic representations, many stereotypes related to woman’s image are still perceived. The journalists and women who ocupy the journalistic organization are decreased to the field of private life and have their professional aspirations attached to their feelings, in most scenarios. Heroism is another overriding fator, that persists in attributing to the individual the ability to transform collective problems based on individual solutions. It was also possible to infer that although the attemps of directors, producers and writers of presenting aspects that escape from stereotypes, it is a structure that remains engrained in the collective imagination of contemporaneity.
