Stock Characters

The character is a man named "Aziz." The film is "True Lies." In this film, the audience is told that Aziz is part of a terrorist group, which he is a leader of. The film shows him, being Arab, muslim, and part of a terrorist organization) to be cruel, murderous, beleiving his terrorist actions to be right. All these fit perfectly with the stereotypical Arab in American movies. With this stereotype, the audience assumes that the other men in this organization (which are in the movie) to not be very different.
