Two young people bring uncertainty to a village in which everything is in a systematic progress. The citizens of Pleasantville, who had previously never suspected the possibility of different situations, evaluations, behaviors, and choices, react to this situation differently. The movie, Pleasantville, demonstrates the individuals’ relations with uncertainty as parallel with the findings of the literature on uncertainty. The first reactions generally appear as a surprise. Later, responses follow two separate processes. These processes are defined as curiosity sourced and anxiety sourced processes. Curiosity sourced process are represented in the movie as parallel to the literature which assumes the association between uncertainty and exploration. On the other hand, the anxiety sourced processes were represented as similar with the theories in which uncertainty is defined with such processes as rigidity in attitudes, group identification, and setting up rules. The movie analysis, which demonstrates similarities with the psychology literature, can be helpful to both daily life practices and researchers studying human behavior.

Her şeyin belirli bir sistematik içinde ilerlediği bir kasabaya farklı bir yerden gelen iki genç belirsizliği getirir. Daha önce farklı durumlar, değerlendirmeler, davranışlar ve seçimler olabileceğine ilişkin hiçbir şüphesi olmayan Pleasantville halkı bu durumu farklı tepkilerle karşılar. Pleasantville filmi insanların belirsizlikle ilişkisini psikoloji alanyazınındaki bulguları destekleyecek şekilde göstermektedir. Bu incelemede Pleasantville filmini özellikle belirsizlik alanyazını ışığında incelemek amaçlanmıştır. Pleasantville’de sıklıkla belirsizliklere verilen tepkiler gösterilmektedir. İlk verilen tepkiler genellikle şaşırma şeklinde ortaya çıkar.Daha sonrasında ise tepkilerin iki farklı sürece ayrıldığını gözlemleyebiliriz. Bu süreçler, merak odaklı ve endişe odaklı süreçler olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Merak odaklı süreçler alanyazında bulunan belirsizlik ve keşfetme arasındaki ilişkiyi savunan araştırmacılarla paralellik göstermektedir. Diğer yandan endişe odaklı süreç belirsizlik ile gelişen, tutumlarda katılaşma, gruplaşma ve kural koyma eğilimi gibi psikolojik süreçleri öne süren kuramlarla benzerlik göstermektedir. Psikoloji alanyazınındaki bulgularla paralellik gösteren bu film analizinin hem günlük yaşam deneyimleri hem de insanla ilgilenen araştırmacılar açısından göz önünde bulundurulmasının faydalı olacağı düşünülmektedir.
