How is youth/elderly represented in opposites in the two Harry Brown clips?
Youth is represented as violent and aggressive. This supports the stereotype of youth as being hoodies and shows in the scene that they have power as they swear and are loud and force drugs onto another kid.
In the first bit of the second scene, the first thing the audience hears is a news report on a murder. This shows that the elderly are influenced by the media and this paints their idea of youth. The scene is quiet in comparison to the youth scene as this shows the character's loneliness. There's no sound, music or score in most of the scene to support the idea of the character.
