  1. Social realism By Michael English

  2. Social realism has changed its theme and narrative through the years. In the 1950’s and 60’s it was about your social class and what job you had, then as this genre has continued the genre has increased and added more to the narrative. It has added racism, disability, violence, drugs, sex and stereo types which makes this a more wide spread genre. Genre Modern day social realism films are about teenagers and how society stereo types them and what they do e.g. in Kidulthoodits about drugs, sex and violence. This is also shown in the follow up film ‘adulthood’ and also in others films like ‘Anuvahood’ ‘Shank’ ‘This is England’ and more. This can also just be about the problems that they have in their day to day life and what they think is expectable to them and where they live. It can be able racism and where you are from e.g. immigrants.

  3. Characters In social realism characters are protrude as working class people that live normal lives with events and problems that happen during their life. Teenagers are shown to be violent and drug takers. They are also shown to wear hoodies, trakies and other stereo typical clothing. And in other films like ‘kes’ ‘fish tank’ and ‘Looking for Eric’ they are shown to be wear normally clothes, but is shown to look poor and have not much money because they are only working class.

  4. In the pictures above these are representing the working class and how they dress and are protrude. Three of the pictures are from the film ‘Green street’ which is about football hooligans which are working class and spend their lift watching football and having fights.

  5. Location/Setting The location and settings of social realism films are based in the streets of towns and cities like London. The location that are chosen for this genre are just natural towns and public areas. This gives film the real side of it, instead of having to create a virtual world with CGI, this gives the actors a chance to be able to react and act towards to scenery and not have to create a fake reaction. The location for social realism can be anywhere from a train to a football stadium to a house to the park, it can be anywhere that people go to in their daily lives e.g. school.
