A place beyond the pines.



In this trailer when see the males we always see them doing certain things. In this case we saw them robbing banks, getting involved in police chases, using guns and even government speeches. This shows that they are presented as men in positions of power who are strong and confident in themselves, and independent. Even more so we see the use of tattoos on their bodies which can be associated with violence and danger. The males facial expressions are also always serious and somewhat miserable at times which tells us about the film too and what mood it could give across to us as an audience. Females, on the other hand, are represented as very feminine with some dependance. When we see women they are always holding a baby, telling us as an audience that they have a role as a carer and can't be as independent as males. Furthermore the expressions on the females faces are commonly quite worried and innocent which could express if they are meant to be portrayed as fragile. So to compare both male and females, in this particular trailer, males have a strict dominance over females, like it evolves around them and women are just they subjects on the side who they care for but always have this dominance over them.
