target audience of the film

In the narrative, there had been uses of drugs, and also this gets more involved in with the private life of the main character.

the characters are outcast from the society, because they are non-normal people.

Extremme close ups,when they want to show the facial expressions from the drug´s effect. Theres also slow motion from his face being smiling.

The music is a good component to the situation, overall in the last shot when the character is smiling.

Theres a good effect of light, when the character is being affected, also when he buys the drugs, both of them are perfectly lighted.

They are in the poor society, because of the things they sell, also the other characters, with the pirciengs and all that, they show what kind of person´s they are.

Task 2:

Convenctions¨ Gangster/crime films are usually set in large, crowded cities, to provide a view of the secret world of the criminal: dark nightclubs or streets with lurid neon signs, fast cars, piles of cash, sleazy bars, contraband, seedy living quarters or rooming houses.¨ This is one of the rules that the convenctions should follow, and in this case, it does, because there are gangsters in this film, also dark night clubs, drugs and crimes, the sell of illegal stuf, like drugs.
