III. Excerpts of norm violations from popular movies
A. Excerpts from popular movies such as, Liar, Liar (almost any scene showing
Jim Carrey telling the unvarnished truth); Never Been Kissed (take your pick of
scenes where the Drew Barrymore character dresses “abnormally,” acts

where the Bill Murray character violates norms once he figures out that there are
no consequences for his actions because he wakes the next day and starts
February 2 all over again; My Cousin Vinny (numerous violations of norms both
explicit and implicit—is the stuttering lawyer a nonconformist?); Election
(scenes of student body assembly for student speeches on the upcoming election
are priceless examples of conformity and nonconformity); Bulworth (several
scenes: the Warren Beatty character’s speech to an African American audience,
his presentation to a group of filmmakers, and his “rap” before a large audience
of supporters and contributors are all hilarious examples of nonconformity); The
Hangover I and II (most scenes of aberrant male behavior); I Love You Man
(Jason Segal character is often grossly nonconformist).

groups handle norm violations. You may decide to discuss strategies for dealing
