Abstract

This is aimed to investigate types of presupposition and their functions in the mystery and thriller film script of “Escape from Pretoria” by Francis Annan. This research uses qualitative method and observation as the strategy in collecting data in which data are obtained from film script. The data are collected with Yule’s theory (1996) for presupposition types, Halliday’s theory (2003) for presupposition functions and Subana’s formula for determining the dominant presupposition and dominant presupposition function. The results of this study indicated that there were 177 presuppositions, with 166 existential presuppositions (93.8%), 6 factive presuppositions (3.4%), 4 lexical presuppositions (2.2%) and 1 counterfactual presupposition (0.6%). From 177 presuppositions, the data were classified into 23 regulatory functions (13.0%), 2 interactional functions (1.1%), 57 representational functions (32.2%), 79 personal functions (44.6%), 1 imaginative function (0.6%), 4 instrumental functions (2.3%) and 11 heuristic functions (6.2%). Thus, dominant presupposition is existential and dominant function of presupposition is personal. Keywords: presupposition, presupposition function, film script.
