How does your media product represent particular social groups? By Jack Bowering.

Above we have our character Mr. Cooper (left) and John Dillinger (right) from Public Enemies. i have chosen Public enemies because they are both gangster movies will a similar rise and fall story line. I feel that there is a large comparison between the two representations.Public enemies is a  story of the last few years of the notorious bank robber John Dillinger. John Dillinger is a hard mob boss/ bank jobber he is played by Johnny Depp in comparison with our media product they both have a dangerous life and are both crime lords that inflict a massive amount of pain towards their victims.

Our film Interceptors is about a group of low level gangsters who get infiltrated by a undercover police officer who gradually destroys them from the inside. all of the cast are dressed in stereotypical gangster clothing. also in Public enemies they are also dressed in stereotypical gangster clothing. As with Public Enemies our film is following the usual rise and fall story line so that the audience can relate to it. However with Public enemies the have a storyline where the police take out everybody around him, ours is about a police officer who is attacking them from the inside. i feel our film is set up is a modern adaptation way and to historical correct.

Above we have our character DCI Woods (right) and Ofcr. Marvin Nash (left) from Reservoir dogs. I have chosen Reservoir dogs because they are both gangster movies will a similar rise and fall story line.I feel that there is a large comparison between the two representations. Reservoir dogs is about a bank job gone wrong. They both are hostages that get severely tortured but survive and the mobsters attacking them get caught. they both fit in the social group of victims. however as ours clothing is normal and uninspiring this makes him look like the unlucky passer by but in reservoir dogs Ofcr. Marvin Nash is clearly a police officer by doing this we have tried to make the audience feel sympathetic for DCI Woods. By having all of the camera shots either looking down from the mobsters or the victim looking up at the mobsters this give the impression that they have no power and that they are at the mercy of the mobsters.
