This thesis is written based on the analysis of The Kids Are All Right by Lisa Cholodenko. It is aimed to explain how the movie perpetuates the myth of heteronormativity in planned lesbian family through its family construction of Nic and Jules and how partriarchy is glorified through the characterization of biological father represented in The Kids Are All Right. The research is a descriptive qualitative of which the main data are in form of characters, acts, sounds, camera angles, lighting, costume, dialogue, and other cinematographic elements of the movie. The supporting data are taken from sources such as books, reviews, journals, websites, and other related references. Since the research belongs to American Study as an interdisciplinary study, it involves some disciplines employed in the form of theory and approach, including gender theory, semiotic film theory, narrative analysis approach, and socio-cultural approach. The research finds that The Kids Are All Right still plays with common myth on heteronormativity. It defines that the kids are all right by constructing the family as a “no-remarkable” heteronormative family. The movie also perpetuates partriarchy through the characterization of biological father as the male hero which “makes” the children accept the family. However, to fulfill the demand of gay gaze as medium of contestation, this movie gives space of hope for gay family in the end of the movie. Keywords: heteronormativity, partriarchy, planned lesbian family
