BINARY OPPOSITIONS IN CLIP:
-Predator vs Prey
-Big hot city vs Small dull town
-Anti- social vs Social
Bella does not say much when she arrives which shows the withdraw she has towards her father. She is also persistent in her request not to be featured in the school paper which shows how she does not like to be the center of attention.
GREASE:
The opening Grease follows a group of teenager on their first day back at school, in particular a couple dealing with having to be away from one another.
BINARY OPPOSITIONS IN CLIP:
-Macho man vs Innocent girl
The boys are seen hyper as they arrive at school which demonstrates their eager manor, dressed in all back with slicked hair which in those times was essential if you were to be perceived as a real man. Furthermore the boys have a conversation about cars which is a very typical topic boys choose to speak about. On the other hand the girls wear very feminine clothing with subtle colours showing their delicate manor.
Attack the Block
Attack the block is a film where an alien invasion has taken place and a young group of people come up with a plan to kill them.
BINARY OPPOSITIONS IN CLIP:
bad vs good
loud vs quiet
-vulnerable vs confident
Firstly the lady is alone whereas there are at least 5 boys in the group, this makes her vulnerable as she has no companion to protect if she were to be in danger. Furthermore when she hears the noise in the alleyway she flinches demonstrating her awareness which the audience can interpret as her being paranoid. On the other hand the boys perform a robbery against the woman showing them as brave as being on the streets of London could see them getting caught anytime by the police or even passerby's.
