Representaions of Teenager Stereotypes within Films





Here are two photos of tennagers from films. one shows a tennager holding a gun in the movie 'Kidulthood' this is nagative because it represents teenages as violent.

Representations of Homeless Stereotypes within Films

Here are two photos of homeless people from films. One of the films is 'The Pursuit of Happiness' and shows a positive representation of a homeless person. It does this by showing him wearing a suit meaning he really wants to work and also even though he is homeless he still looks after his son. The other image is from 'Run Lola Run' and is a negative representation of a homeless person. it is negative because it shows him with a gun.
