|
What is the key plot idea introduced in the title sequence?
|
Animated sequence of 2 guys dancing. Uses simple colours for
background and titles. It hints that these 2 best friends might be separated in
the movie
|
Rioting clips- rebellion, teenagers versus police, the aftermath of
rioting
|
In what order is the storyline introduced?
|
Chronological order- 2 friends talking on the phone while 1 is on his
way to pick up his friend. Their concerns are sex, family, education.
|
Chronological but there is one flashback scene at the beginning of a
news clip to provide details about why the riots are happening
|
What characters are introduced?
|
The 2 friends and one of their mums
|
2 boys- Said and Vinz. They’re both working class teens, Vinz is
Jewish and Said is Arab
|
What social groups are represented? How are they represented
(positively, negatively, stereo-typically/ us of binary oppositions)?
|
Young male students- complex representation as their topic of
discussion is gross but they’re both likeable characters. They are the stereo typical concept of being a 'nerd'.
|
2 teenage boys have a negative representation as they are rude and aggressive
towards authorities but are also seen positively too as they are acting like
this to support their friend which got violated by the police.
The police have a negative representation of abusing their power over
teenagers.
