Abstract

Intercultural communication is concerned with examining behaviours when members of two or more culture interact. And movie is one of the most popular media to express culture. Shanghai Noon is a well-known movie because of its cultural complex. It describes the interaction among characters who come from different cultures. The objective of this study is to know what culture involves and to find the influence of culture into communication. The researcher analyzes the interaction among the characters especially China and America. The researcher chooses China and America because those countries often interact. This research uses qualitative research because the researcher describes the dialogues and actions which show intercultural communication. In this research, the researcher uses James W. Neulip theory about cultural variability. The theory is used to ease the analysis of the influence of culture into communication. There are five cultural variabilities proposed by Neulip. They are individualism- collectivism, high-low context, value orientation, power distance, and uncertainty avoidance. According to the result. China has a highest tendency into Collectivism while America is individualism. China is also included in the high context culture, having many value orientations, large power distance, and high uncertainty avoidance. Meanwhile, America belongs to different tendency. Although it seems like contradictory, but a country cannot label as one of the variability. Because culture is not static, but rather dinamic. And when people are not aware about the difference of the other's, misunderstanding can happen and it will lead to various result. Furthermore, misunderstanding can endanger someone's life and hurt the other's pride.
