In today's lesson we started looking at another youth representation film called the inbetweeners. The film is about four young boys who travel around Australia supposedly having the time of their life. The film is full of youth representation from crude humor to degrading each others parents, there is a lot of stereotypical male teenage humor used to represent the youth of today.
The film makes the representation of the young teenagers mostly about their crude humor about sex and women, the way they talk and joke about women and sex as an object and something that they don't value shows the lack of maturity that young people are stereo typically see to posses.
Analyzing this film in terms of its representation includes looking at the language that they use. Terms such as "Banter" and "F*** off" show the level of immaturity you would expect from a group of teenagers. As these terms are used very early on in the film, it quickly shows the audience the type of characters that they are without having to progress through the story too much.
