Conventions of a gangster film.

The video below contains screen shots from the sub-genres British Gangster, Film Noir and Detective Who Dunnits from the genre Gangster Films. I chose to look at these genres as I thought that they would be interesting to learn more about how they are similar and different to each other which would help me to ultimately decide which genre to continue into. The films that I looked into were Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Layer Cake for British Gangster, Sunset Boulevard and Sin City for Film Noir and The Usual Suspects and Miss Marple's The Blue Geranium for detective Who Dunnits. The video below will go into each of these film openings and what features are similar and different in each sub-genre.
