This is England Frame analysis

• The frame clearly includes the council houses in the background - this shows the set of the film and the conditions/area Shaun lives in



• The car is an old car - this connotes that the film is set in the past and helps to achieve verisimilitude



• Also 'Maggie is a twat' is graffitied on the wall - again connoting that the film is set in the past tense when Maggie was Priminister



• The area looks very rough and Shaun is all alone at a young age - showing the community must be close as he is quite vulnerable in that situation and he can be trusted alone

• Denote that the title is centrally framed



• Bold/bubble styled font - connotes childishness (central protagonist is a child)



• Title is white with black marks - signifying decay



• picture behind the title is a rough looking council estate - this presents the set of the film and connotes that the film will be based on working class people and lives



• Upper case font - this anchors the reading that this is a statement
