Representation



The 2 characters which are included in the film opening, Aubrey and Carol, are subjected to stereotypes because of their ages and the roles they play.

Stereotypes of Aubrey: She is a rebellious teenager who has arguments with her parents. Not all teenagers are this way, but her character is conforming to the stereotype that the media have built up of her.

Stereotypes of Caroline: She is a worrying mother who inflicts strict rules upon her child and she does not agree with her daughter's homosexuality. Caroline is conforming to the stereotypical image of the older generation which does not agree with gay people which the media have created which are not true for everyone.
