6 images that represent the issues or remind me of issues within the film:

Media influences- Vinz is boxing in front of TV screens showing us how much Vinz takes in about the media.

Violence- that it's all Vinz has grown up with, it's how he's learnt to sick up for himself and how his name gets known.

Religion/race- this image reveals their all different, they've came from different background and have been nurtured differently, yet their friendship is quite close with the only thing they have in common is age.

Vicious circle- they get bored and when they find something to do they get in trouble and as soon as they get away from the trouble they're back bored again, their day consisted of nothing, they do nothing. The world rotates, like their day goes round in circles.

Social class- low depth of field used throughout while they're in Paris, shows they don't belong to the environment as they're apart of the underclass and working class.

Tensions rising- this highlights the selaration between the three lads, as Hubert is clearly showing his unity with saïd and emphasises their separation from Vinz.

2 scenes showing poverty:

-How they're sitting on the children's climbing frame and and they're doing nothing, emphasising their lives as they do nothing, they have nothing to live for.

-The first shot of them in Paris on the bridge, the low depth of field shows their separation to society as they don't fit in city life, they're used to underclass and causing trouble.

2 scenes showing power:

-When Vinz first reveals the gun to Saïd and Hubert, the gun is always placed in the centre of the shot emphasising its importance, with Vinz the one holding it shows his power and his control over Saïd and Hubert.

-When the police get ahold of Hubert and Saïd and they tie them to chairs and torment them, this reveals the power the higher authority have over the underclass.

2 scenes showing conflict:

-The scene when Hubert leaves Saïd and Vinz, when he realises Vinz brought the gun out with him, and they go to the chilled place, with music and lads dancing. Within the mise en scene there is a fence up in the middle of the room Vinz on one side and Hubert on the other. This shows they're physically separated and divided from eachother.

-When they're in the toilet and Saïd is standing in the centre of Vinz and Hubert. The mirrors reflect Vinz and Hubert making it seem as though they have their backs to eachother, as they haven't properly made up.
