The approach used is descriptive qualitative with pragmatic analysis. The data were obtained by using the free listening method and listening to the narration of the characters in the movie. The results of the analysis found 12 data of compliance with the principles of language politeness, consisting of 5 data of the maxim of generosity, 3 data of the maxim of respect, 1 data of the maxim of simplicity, 1 data of the maxim of consensus, and 2 data of the maxim of sympathy. No compliance with the maxim of wisdom was found.

The application of polite language in learning can improve students' communication skills using polite language in various social situations.
