How is youth and the elderly represented as opposites?
Stereotypes
Dark lighting, quite hard to see what's going on in the shots
Lots of close ups and mid shots used as well as many people there making it claustrophobic
They are pressuring one person to take drugs and manipulating him into doing it
Very noisy, all the youths shouting
Differences/Opposites
Much calmer and slower shots, more of a variety of shots used, more long shots and wide shots
He is on his on suggesting he is lonely, and the wider shots back this up
Is it extremely quiet, he doesn't speak at all
Status and Power
Youth potentially hold the power over the man as there are more of them and they are being rebellious
Proxemic codes consist of the old man looking at the underpass at a high angle, proving that he has authority
