In my independent study I will be looking at the film ‘Green Street’. There are different issues involved in the film such as the representation of Hooliganism, different class, the representation of different countries, Youth Culture evolving throughout time, Stereotyping of men, different football clubs and the representation of football fans.
The genre of the film is action as it involves a lot of violence for example the fight between ‘Mill wall’ and ‘West ham’ at the end of the film leads to a horrific death of one of the main characters. Whilst looking at the representation of football hooligans I will be able to cover various different concepts of what a hooligan involves. For example what different clothes they wear, how they cover up from the opposite team during the matches, what weapons used after the matches during fighting and so on.

This is a promising start, Gemma, but it is a little short.
You might want to watch some other films that show football violence, so that you can compare them.
