Task 4

The Analysis Speech Disorder of Bill Denbourgh in ‘IT’ Movie

Abstract

The aim of this study is to find the onset of speech disorder experienced by one of the
main actors in the film ‘IT’ movie. It was played by Bill Denbourgh. ‘IT’ movie was released in
Indonesia on 8 September 2017, and produced by New Line Cinema, Katzmith production, Lin
Pictures, and Vertigo Entertainment. This study will define the relationship between
Psycholinguistic related to speech disorder, and how the main lead stutters in every dialog. In
addition, the method of this study is using qualitative study. It is conducted by several steps;
they are data collection, data reduction, data display and conclusion. It is used to analyze and
explain the data, the data of this study is the sentences which uttered by Bill Denbourgh.

Keywords: Psycholinguistics, Speech Disorder, Stuttering.

Introduction

Psycholinguistics is one of the branches in linguistics study. Aitchison (2003) state that
psycholinguistics is a branch of science that combines two scientific disciplines, namely
psychology and linguistics. Psycholinguistics concerns about acquiring and developing the
language. This study includes the psychology and language as well, where the brain, mind, and
language work together. Psycholinguistics is also known as linguistic behavior. While the
newborn baby acquires and develops their language, it is explained by psycholinguistics
perspective. Newborn baby will have their stages in uttering their first language, starting from
cooing, babbling, and gurgling. Psycholinguistics does not only explain about the normal baby
but also explain them who have problems in uttering the language. Psycholinguistics also
defines about progress in producing the language. How the newborn baby naturally learns to
produce the language grammatically or not. In the other, psycholinguistics also discusses the
language development in children.
According to Sheila Steinberg (2007), communication disorders are anything that
interferes with the process of sending and receiving messages so that the meaning of the
message cannot be clearly understood by the communicant and creates barriers between the
communicator and the communicant. These various disturbances can interfere with the success
of communication so that the meaning received by the communicant is different from the
meaning intended by the communicator. There are various kinds of disorders that can interfere
with the success of communication, including cultural disorders, psychological disorders, and
semantic disorders or language disorders.
A language disorder is a disorder that involves language processing. Language processing itself
is one of the important components in social communication according to experts in addition to
social interaction, social cognition, and pragmatics. Language disorders are generally traced
through language development that begins in childhood to adulthood. This is because language
development is one of the factors that affect communication and social communication
functions according to experts. Therefore, language disorders experienced by a person can have
an impact on their social communication skills or social communication disorders.

Stuttering is a condition in which the sufferer has trouble speaking. People with
stuttering usually repeat syllables or prolong the pronunciation of a word when speaking.
Stuttering can be experienced by all ages. Generally, this condition affects children under 5
years of age. Stuttering at this age is a form of inability to convey meaning. This is quite normal
and can go away on its own. According to Sleeper (2007) states that Stuttering is a speech
disorder in which repetition and prolongation of syllables, sound, and phrase interfere with
fluency.
However, stuttering can also be caused by problems with the brain, nerves, or muscles involved
in speech. If left unchecked, stuttering can worsen, resulting in loss of self-confidence and
disrupting social relationships. Stuttering generally occurs in children under 5 years of age.
Stuttering that appears is a form of limitation in conveying a meaning through language or
speech. This is normal and will go away on its own. Neurogenic; neurogenic is stuttering caused
by disorders of the brain, nerves, and muscles involved in speech. This condition can be caused
by an accident or disease, such as a stroke. Psychogenic; psychogenic stuttering is rare. This
type of stuttering is caused by trauma or problems in thinking or reasoning.

Method

Bill, sometimes also called “Big Bill” due to his height, is the unofficial leader of the
Losers’ Club—a motley group of adolescent social outcasts who are brought together through
their mutual experiences of being bullied by Henry Bowers and of the evil supernatural forces
that rule Derry’s sewers. He is the son of Zack and Sharon Denbrough and the older brother of
George Denbrough. At the age of three, he is hit by a car and knocked into the side of a
building, an accident that left him unconscious for seven hours and that becomes his mother’s
explanation for his persistent stutter. Bill is sent to a speech school in Bangor where he learns
techniques to correct his stutter, such as reciting a poem, which he uses later to help him
combat It. When George is killed by Pennywise the Dancing Clown, Bill is ten years old and a
student at Derry Elementary School. After George’s death, Bill’s parents shut him out, which he
internalizes as a sense that he is partly responsible for George’s death and that they value him
less than they did his younger brother. Around the time that he befriends the other members
of the Losers’ Club, he gets an oversized bike that he calls “Silver.” Bill writes a novel about
ghosts while still a student at the University of Maine and supports himself by working part-
time in a textile mill. Bill becomes a successful author at the age of twenty-three and his next
book, The Black Rapids, is an even greater success. The book is adapted into a film entitled Pit
of the Black Demon and stars his future wife, Audra Phillips. In adulthood, Bill is described as a
tall, balding man. He is the novel’s protagonist because he leads the pursuit of It, spurred both
by the death of his younger brother as well as his wish to quell the darker forces in his life.

Result

October 1988

[It is a rainy day in Derry, Maine. In his bedroom, Bill Denbrough is pulling pages from his
notebook to make a paper sailboat for his little brother, Georgie. Georgie draws a smiley face
on the window. He looks outside at the rain.]

Georgie: Sure I won't get in trouble, Bill?

Bill: Don't be a wuss. I'd come with you if I weren't [coughs] dying.

Georgie: You're not dying.

Bill: You didn't see the v-vomit coming out of my nose this morning?

Georgie: That's disgusting.

The first proof that Bill stutters in uttering sentence is in the word “v-vomit”.

[At school, Bill and his friends, Eddie Kaspbrak and Richie Tozier, walk out of a classroom.]

Eddie: So, there's this church full of Jews, right? And Stan has to take this super Jewy test.

Bill: But how's it work?

Eddie: They slice the tip of his dick off.

Richie: But then Stan will have nothing left!

But in other scenes, Bill success in uttering the perfect sentence like “But how's it work?”.

[Belch burps at Eddie]

Henry: [bumping Bill as he and his friends walk away] Loser.

Bill: [stuttering angrily] You suck, Bowers!

Eddie: [knowing better than to pick a fight with Henry Bowers] Shut up, Bill.

[Henry, Belch, and Patrick turn around]

Henry: [mockingly] You s-s-s-say something, Bi-Bi-Bi-Billy? You got a free ride this year 'cause of
your little brother. [approaches Bill] Ride's over, Denbrough. [Henry looks to his father, who
takes off his glasses and looks at his son with a stern facial expression that says "Leave him
alone, son."] This summer's gonna be a hurt train for you and your faggot friends. [runs his
hand along his tongue and wipes it on Bill's cheek; he, Belch, and Patrick walk off to Belch's car,
where Vic is waiting, and the four of them get in the car]

In any condition, Bill also stutter in angrily such in this scene.

Bill: Ah, we're screwed. Richie, wait here. Come on. [he, Eddie, and Stan run off to get some
medical supplies, leaving Richie to keep Ben company]

Richie: Glad I got to meet you before you died. [Ben looks at Richie blankly]

[In the pharmacy, Eddie grabs several items from the shelf for Ben's wounds.]

Bill: Can we afford all that?

Stanley: [holding a few dollar bills] That's all we got.

Eddie: You kidding me?

Bill: Wait, you have an account here, don't you?

Eddie: If my mom finds out I bought all this stuff for myself... I'm spending the whole rest of the
weekend in the emergency room getting X-rayed.

But here, Bill can utter the sentence perfectly.

Discussion

Georgie's Death

In late fall of 1957, Bill has developed a severe cold, inhibiting him from attending school. While
home, he constructed a paper boat for his younger brother Georgie to play with outside. Bill
warns him to remain cautious of the unstable weather and tells his brother to be careful after
Georgie kisses his older brother on the cheek. This would be the last time the two would ever
see each other again. Not long after, George was slain by IT (in the form of a circus clown).

Creating the Dam

On the afternoon of last day of school, Bill and Edward "Eddie" Kaspbrak decide to build a dam
in the Barrens but are confronted by the school bully Henry Bowers and his cronies Victor Criss
and Belch Huggins who are in pursuit of Ben Hanscom. Bill and Eddie tell them they haven't
seen him, and believing that they're lying, Henry pushes Eddie to the ground and breaks his
nose while Henry destroys down their dam. Bill then tells them to back off and Henry, Belch,
and Vic leave after losing interest in finding Ben. After his inhaler runs out, Eddie flies into panic
and Ben appears just in time for Bill to leave them both to run to the pharmacy for Eddie. When
Bill returns, Eddie introduces him to Ben who then shows them how to build a proper dam, Bill
and Eddie are impressed by Ben's architectural knowledge.  

During the second day of building the Dam, Richie Tozier makes his appearance along with Stan
Uris . Richie brings out some Cuban cigars which Bill smokes happily while Eddie refuses
because of his asthma. A police officer, Mr. Nell comes along and is shocked to see that they've
blocked up the Dam. When Ben tearfully owns up to it, Bill vouches for Ben along the rest of the
boys and they destroy the Dam. Despite his anger Mr. Nell praises Ben for his talent and warns
the rest of the boys not go into the Barrens alone, telling them to go as a group. 

The Photo Album 

Bill is amazed about hearing Ben and Eddie's stories and discusses it with Richie, where Bill
expresses his deep seeded guilt over his role in Georgie's death, Richie consoles Bill, pointing
out it he can hardly be blamed for trying to make his brother happy while he had the flu. This
causes Bill to cry in relief and thanks Richie but warns him not to tell anyone he cried. Richie
asks Bill to show him Georgie's photo album, so the two boys go inside Georgie's unnaturally
cold room. Richie picks up the album and sees the dried blood from Bill's last encounter. They
see one of the pictures moving, showing the old days of Derry. Bill and Richie see IT as
Pennywise in the album and are terrified to see that Pennywise has Georgie's face. Bill, stricken,
reaches out for the photo and Richie has to tug his hand out when Bill slices three of his fingers
as they are sucked into the photograph.

The Werewolf On Neibolt Street

Feeling more resolved, Bill, armed with his father's Walther PPK .380, travels down to one of
the distant houses on Neibolt Street (where Eddie had encountered It in the form of the
homeless leper under the house's porch) in pursuit of his brother's killer, whom he believed still
lives there. Richie accompanies him to the house, though reluctantly and armed with sneezing
powder.  While searching around the deserted house, the two are ambushed and attacked by
It, with Bill perceiving it as Pennywise the clown and Richie as the werewolf from "I Was a
Teenage Werewolf". 
The creature isn't affected by Bill's gun and grabs the boy as he's to escape through the
window. Richie also grabs his friend and struggles with the monster. When Richie does an
impression of Mr. Nell, IT is affected by the humor and releases Bill. Richie then throws the
sneezing powder at the monster and successfully damages IT.  The two manage to barely
escape with Bill's trustworthy bike, Silver. When they are many blocks away, Richie, who had
been scratched, collapses and so does Bill, and both burst into tears and hug each other.

The Rock Fight

Weeks after the near the near-death experience on Neibolt Street, the Loser's club gets bigger
by welcoming Beverly Marsh into the fold. Beverly forms some feelings for Bill, during one calm
afternoon down at the Barrens. Mike Hanlon meets the Losers while fleeing from Henry Bowers
and his gang, Bill orders the group to pick up stones and the Losers drive the bullies away, Bill
threatens Bowers telling him to stay away from the Losers and that the Barrens is theirs.
Beverly welcomes Mike and Bill realizes "the circle is complete", Mike then takes out his dad's
album of Old Derry to show and then the Losers (especially Stan) are terrified to witness IT
threatening to "kill them all" through the Mike's Album. Stan is hysteric and Bill calms down, Bill
tells the group that IT is scared now that they are all together and that can destroy the demon
when they are united.    

The Smoke Hole Ceremony 

Once again down at the Barrens, Ben has used his architectural prowess to build a large
wooden box in the ground which the Losers hide with a trapdoor. Inspired by Native Americans
the Losers decide to make a campfire inside the hole. All seven sit inside and let them breathe
in the smoke from the fire; Ben, along with Eddie, Beverly, and Stan, leave the hole, but Mike
and Richie stay. The two boys witness IT coming to Earth on a meteorite that falls in Derry
during prehistoric times and resting there. Before they suffocate, Bill and others pull Richie and
Mike from the hole and they recount what they saw. 

Bullseye

The Losers plan to kill IT and decided to melt down sliver into slugs using Bill's dad smelter and
Ben's silver coins. The Losers discuss who will use the Slingshot against IT and Beverly
outperforms everyone using the weapon. Then the group travel to Neibolt Street and go to the
house where Eddie, Bill, and Richie were attacked. Now united as a group, they travel the house
and experience the bizarre illusions that IT sends their way, as the house bends are distorts
trying to separate them. Bill states to the group that "it's not real" and they're strong united.
Once they get to the bathroom, IT appears to them in its Werewolf form. The beast tries to kill
Beverly and then Bill but Ben protects them but gets slashed in the chest as a result. Beverly
wounds IT with the slingshot and it escapes through the drain. Bill lends Beverly his shirt when
hers get ripped and Bill starts forming some feeling feelings for her which Ben recognizes and
feels passive jealously. 

The Ritual of Chud

By the end of the summer of 1958, Bill had led the Losers into the Derry sewers, where they
intended to confront and ultimately eradicate the terrorizing creature that had murdered his
younger brother the year before. Deep under the city, they eventually come across the hellish
beast’s fortress. In the decisive attempt to destroy IT, Bill engaged in the “Ritual of Chud” (a
tribal-based semantic that is supposedly used to repel “impure” spirits) with the demonic
entity. With the help of the “Turtle” (a guardian-like supernatural being that had originated
from the same universe IT came from), he ultimately succeeded, defeating the paranormal
demon (although it proved to be only a brief conquest as the ancient terror would resurface
twenty-seven years later). Following IT’s alleged demise, the Loser’s began to lose their sense of
connectivity with one another. To ensure that their bond would remain intact, Beverly engages
in preadolescence sexual intercourse with Bill and the rest of the male Loser’s. Upon leaving the
sewers, Bill formed a divine blood oath with the others, where they would promise to unite
again if IT was ever to return.

1985

Returning to Derry

On May 29, 1985, Bill receives a phone call from his old friend, Mike Hanlon (who was the only
loser to stay behind in Derry), telling him that the child killings are happening again. Mike asks
him to return to Derry, as he fears that It may still well be alive. Upon learning of Its return, Bill
becomes so frightened and worried that he begins to stutter uncontrollably, his childhood
reaction to stress and trauma. After a brief dispute with his wife, Audra, Bill eventually departs
to Derry to face It once more, as he had twenty-seven years ago. 

The Meeting

Bill takes a taxi to a Chinese restaurant where Mike has gathered them together, Bill is initially
nervous to see his companions and hallucinates that they've "pulled a Peter Pan" and not aged
at all, but it was merely a trick of the light. Upon seeing the aged Bill, Richie quickly points out
Bill's bald spot, causing Bill to unconsciously bite back calling Richie "trash mouth" causing
everyone to erupt in laughter. Bill notes the changes in his friends, especially how stunningly
attractive Beverly and Ben (now that he's lost weight) are, even calling Ben a "magazine model"
and asking how he did it. The rest of the Losers congratulate Bill on his success as a writer and
Beverly asks to sign a few books she picked up at the airport, Mike informs of Stan's death and
Bill laments it, greatly wishing Stan was still with them. Mike also tells them about all the recent
child killings that have happened and he shows them a picture of Georgie that was left in one of
the crime scenes, which terrifies Richie who remembers the photo album, but Bill has a more
passive shocked reaction to seeing his little brother again. Mike stops taking command and
gives the role of leadership back to Bill who urges the others that they must end IT once and for
all even if they do die, and the rest of the remaining Losers comply, despite some reluctance
from Eddie and Richie.  

When dessert comes along with some Chinese Crackers, Bill "senses" danger and doesn't open
his Cracker, and witnesses blood pouring out of Beverly's, an eye appears in Richie's, a cricket a
crawls out of Eddie's and teeth form in Ben's. Beverly almost screams but Bill taking command
for the first time claps a hand over her mouth and tells the rest of the Losers to "Dummy up" as
the waitress appears confused at all the commotion, making up an excuse, the waitress is
fooled. While talking, a big, repulsive fly crawls out of Bill's cracker. After the terrifying
experience, the Losers promptly leave the restaurant and briefly go their separate ways in
Derry.  

Bill Denbrough sees a ghost

While four of the Losers (Ben, Beverly, Eddie, and Richie) have a horrific run-in with Pennywise
who claims they are "too old" to defeat him and warns them to flee Derry, Bill, on the other
hand, doesn't meet Pennywise but finds Silver in a store. Bill is struck dumb at the sight of his
old bike and decides to buy it, Bill tests the bike out to find it's in need of repairs. Bill then
returns to Losers who have another meeting and fill in nearly all the blanks leading up to their
first battle with IT.

Afterwards, Bill is left alone with Beverly, and she kisses him, though he showed some
reluctance, he kisses her back, and the pair decide (despite respective marriages) to make love
at the hotel. Bill and Beverly quickly find a room and partake in sexual intercourse and halfway
through, Beverly remembers what she did for the male Losers in the sewer and questions Bill
about it, before sleeping naked together. They are woken up by a call from Eddie, who just
accidentally killed Henry Bowers in self-defense, Bill and Beverly go over to help Eddie and are
soon joined by Ben and Richie. The five remaining Losers decide to go down into the sewers to
try and kill IT.

The Devil Diminishes (Audra)

Unknown to Bill, the concerned Audra decides to head over to Derry in an attempt to uncover
his long-term promise he had supposedly kept with his childhood friends. While residing at one
the town's local motels, IT uses Tom Rogan (the then-husband of Beverly Marsh) to capture her
and use her as bait to lure Bill and the rest of his comrades into its lair. Upon viewing IT's true
form (the "deadlights"), Tom instantly dies in shock while Audra falls into a catatonic state.
Using the Ritual of Chud again (along with Richie this time), Bill finally defeats IT and rescues
Audra. She survives (being the only person to survive the death-defying limbo), but remains in
her catatonic state. Bill helps Audra to come out of her catatonia by taking her on a bicycle ride
on his childhood bike, Silver. He is impersonating the Lone Ranger, which is something he had
done years earlier to help revive a young Richie who was frozen with fear after meeting IT.
