Abstract
The objectives of this research are to identify and describe (1) the types of maxim of Cooperative Principle that are flouted and/or hedged by the characters; and (2) the ways of maxim flouting and hedging applied by the characters in the movie Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels. This movie is a British crime one that tells about four Cockney men that caught in the middle of a labyrinth with three things, marijuana, money, and guns. This condition leads to the characters in the movie to flout and hedge the maxims of Cooperative Principles in their conversation. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach. The data in this research are in the forms of dialogues in the movie and the transcript or text of Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels which contain maxim flouting and hedging. The source of the data is Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels the movie and its script. The data were collected through watching the movie, reading and rereading the script, and identifying the actors. The data were, then, identified using the limitation provided, coded into the data sheet, interpreted as what are found based on the context of each datum, discussed into a deeper and richer story-lined explanation, and then concluded for the research questions. The result of the research reveals two points. The first is that from the four maxims of Cooperative Principles, the maxim flouting of quantity and the maxim hedging of quality are mostly used by the characters. While maxim of manner is found to be flouted twice and hedged once because the characters like to give a clear statement without using ambiguous words. The second is that not all types of ways of maxim flouting are found; there are only seven types can be found and applied by the characters. Overstatement is mostly used by the characters to flout the maxim of Cooperative Principles. Meanwhile, tautology is only found once because the characters do not like to use two same words to emphasize their opinion. For maxim hedging, there are only ten ways of maxim hedging can be found in the data. In using maxim hedging, the characters like to use “well” in their utterances as it is occurred six times. Meanwhile, “anyway”, never mind that”, “I thought”, “I think”, “if you don‟t mind”, “if you know what I mean”, “if I am not mistaken”, and “could they?” are only found once in the data.
