1. Are there any cultural or fashion movements taking place in Britain now, that you think would be strong enough to form a collective identity?

Indie - revolves around music, moving away from mainstream
Emo - Emotional and deep, musical, don't tend to mix with other social groups
Preppy - Middle class mimicking upper class. E.g Jack Wills, Joules,


Nerds/Geeks - socially inept,

2.

Styder : In Fish Tank, the girls at the beginning that are dancing dress the same, act the same and talk the same. This helps to identify their social group.

Althusser: In Kidulthood, all the characters in the act in the same way, the boys coming across as badly behaved, members if gangs and into drugs, and the girls are represented as being "slutty" and treated as property of they boys. People who are not involved in things such as this, and don't live in areas where this kind of thing is normal, will get the impression that everyone from places such as this e.g London, behave in this way.

3. Films such as Alife and Mia do this, as they present males and females in specific ways. Both films show masculinity as being about sleeping around, drinking and providing for their "family". This image is then forced upon the viewer and taken in as being the right way to be.
