Representation of White Working ClassBy Hannah Burgess

Drinking from a bottle of Vodka – drinking alcohol even though she's only a teenager and its illegal.

Hooped earrings and hoodie top – ‘Chav’ stereotype

Grey tracksuit top – doesn’t really care what she looks like

Flats in the background – council estate

Looks run down and scruffy – lack of money/funds

Wearing revealing clothes – want to get noticed

Dancing in the streets – wanting attention (may not get any at home)

Facial expression – tough, she don’t really care what anyone else thinks about her.

Girls dancing: ‘what is your problem?’Main girl: ‘your terrible dancing's my problem’Walks up to the girls and starts fighting and arguing.

Boys just sit and watch the girls fight and argue – think its acceptable.

The mom is hitting her daughter – aggressive behaviour towards family members.

Girl shouts aggressively at her mom – no respect for her.

The man is hugging and kissing a woman while holding beers

The woman is holding a cigarette inside the house – no respect and lack of hygiene/health.

Sitting on the cabinets – no respect and little thought for hygiene and health.

The empty bottles and cans of alcohol show the amount of alcohol consumed by the family.

Bottles and cans just left on the cabinets – doesn’t care that the kitchen is messy and unhygienic.

The moms boyfriend sitting on the sofa watching the 15 year old daughters dancing

Drinking vodka straight out the bottle.

In the trailer of Fish Tank, the white working class is represented in quite a bad light as they are shown to be aggressive, unemployed and

disrespectful.
