Hi, need to submit a 1500 words paper on the topic Analysis of My Big Fat Greek Wedding. There are several various facets of interpersonal communication that happen in the movie in three scenes, which are: the Greek engagement party. when Toula first encounters Ian’s parents. and on Toula’s wedding day.

As Toula’s father Gus notes, there are two types of people: “Greeks, and everyone else who wish they w[ere] Greek” (My Big Fat Greek Wedding—Memorable Quotes, 2011, pg. 8). In Toula’s family, as will be demonstrated in these three scenes—there is a ton of interpersonal dynamics going on—and many of these scenes are excellent examples of interpersonal communication techniques. The central theme of these three scenes is the various types of interpersonal communication involved in such a large family and the integration of Ian Miller into Toula’s family and Toula’s integration into his (at the engagement party scene and when Toula meets Ian’s parents), which finally culminates in both sides coming together the day of Toula and Ian’s wedding on Toula’s wedding day.

The Greek engagement party scene is filled with ample examples of effective communication. For example, Ian (Toula’s betrothed) shows much effective listening. Ian genuinely hears knows how to communicate through listening, in Floyd’s opinion (2008, pp. 264). Many times in the movie, Toula’s relatives are basically ‘listening, but not hearing’, also called pseudo-listening (Floyd, 2008, pp. 270). Mannerisms are very common in Greek culture. Especially common are gesticulations and emblems (Floyd, 2008, pp. 223). Different aspects of the voice are used in Greek culture—including levels of loudness, which vary from family to family. These are the particular vocalists of a family (Floyd, 2008, pp. 226). The proximity of the relatives to Ian during the engagement party is closer than what he’s used to—being from an Anglo-Saxon culture where people generally maintain more distance than in Mediterranean cultures like Greece.&nbsp.
