3 Opening Films & Similarities
Introduction
Adulthood is a British drama production directed and starring Noel Clarke. This is the sequel to Kidulthood also written by Clarke. The film is distributed by Pathe Pictures International and gained total gross revenue of £3,347,811. The story follows guy who has been released from prison for six years for murder. The film begins with an establishing shot of a street gathering that involved alcohol and loud music. What follows this is that an expansive looking car pulls up which triggers the opportunity for teenagers to smash the car up. This film represents stereotypical teenagers roaming the streets of London getting up to no good.
Green Street
The film football factory is another football film that displays hooliganism within the sport. The 2004 film directed by Nick Love stars Danny Dyer and Frank Harper. It is also based on the novel with the same name written by John King. As for the film, it reflects on two rivalled football supporters, Chelsea and Millwall. It follows a young single guy who begins to doubt himself and re-thinks his actions of being a hooligan. The film was distributed by Momentum Pictures with music produced by Ivor Guest. This film is very similar to Green Street which therefore means that it is similar to our media product again due to the fact that the characters are under the influence of violence and alcohol.
This part of my blog will talk about 3 film openings that are similar to my media product. These films are:
- Adulthood
- Green Street
- Football Factory
The reason I have chosen these films are because they are all films that contain violence.
Adulthood
Green Street
Green Street is a film directed by Lexi Alexander showing people across the world football hooliganism in England. The 2005 British and American drama film shows the insight of violence behind the beautiful game. They show this through the four technical codes of camera, editing, sound and mise-en-scene. The story follows a guy who has been kicked out of college for being accused for drug dealing and falls in with the now famous West Ham United football firm. The film was distributed by Baker Street OddLot Entertainment and the music was created by Terrence Jay. I feel that this film is similar to our media product because due to the violence and alcohol occurs.
