Location report

I've had a lot of trouble getting a photo if my location
But it will involve a police office from the 1980's, will large panel windows down the side with cheap blinds, a single light bulb, with a miasma in the air in the room and every thing has been stain by tobacco, will be fitted with an old dented oak desk, plastic deck chair and a filing cabinet. I have got my idea for location from life on mars and ashes to ashes.

Representation

In both children of men and V for vendetta, representation is feature heavily, and both films have heavily influenced by woman and men but the films have the opinions of society and are distopian so this themes featured are what will happen to us if we keeping going this way.

In both films, woman appear and men act, but in V for vendetta it goes against this as the films goes on as Evey is there at the start to look at but becomes more masculine when V tortures Her and shaves her hair it seems to take her away her femininity and she seems to be reborn as a more masculine woman. Where as in children of men the role of woman in the film is to act as they can not have children any more and in the terms of society they are useless as woman are only to carry children and provide the next generation, the infertility of women has caused all the woman and society in the world of film to become hyper masculine, a good example of this is Theo's ex wife Julian as she had lost a child in past, now she doesn't have any feminine trates.

Both of the films also represent with the final girls which you normally find in slasher films, but they have trates such as they are religious, are virgins and stay alive in the hole film. The only one both the main female characters meet in children of men and V for vendetta is the fact they are both still alive at the end of the films, but you can argue that Evey dies half way through V as she is reborn as a seemingly new character. Kee compleatly contrasts the final girl as she is defiantly not a virgin. Also Evey has a high possibility of not being a virgin as you are show her getting ready to go to her bosses house to have sex with him. So the representation of the final girl is compleatly contrast to the original one that is shown in slasher films.

Both films have male Heros in them, in V for vendetta it is the character of V and children of men theo. they are not your stereotypical hero's as V Is the main cause of disruption in the film and his motives are mainly revenge and the fact he kills people aswell, in brutal ways by stabbing them and only weapon he uses are knifes that can be seen as phallic imagery and he only the knifes to kill me could be linked in to his sexuality although he kisses Evey, but the reason he got his powers were because he was taken to one of the concentration camps for homosexuals, so the knifes could symbolise something to do with his past. We're a theo is compleatly opposite as he doesn't kill anyone, and always walks away from trouble and not never starts it so can be seen as a coward. Really the only heroic trate they share is the fact they both give there life to save the people.

In conclusion both of these film do not really live up to the stereotypes of representation of he characters so they compleatly go against it.
