Sažetak

Negative stereotyping on the basis of language, a practice called linguicism, has a long history. While this happens almost everywhere, the focus of this essay will be on the English-speaking world. As negative stereotyping is an important societal issue, code-switching and multilingualism are not missing in movies and TV shows. However, film presentation of this phenomenon has changed significantly over the decades. This paper traces this shift through two examples: the classic James Bond movie GoldenEye, from 1995, and the 2018
coming-of-age drama The Hate U Give. While the older film features negative characterizations of multilingual speakers, the newer drama examines code-switching as a strategy for survival and self-expression.
