Essay intro redraft

The purpose of this essay is explore the representations of British males in film, specifically in the films Kingsman: The Secret Service (2014), Grimsby (2016) and Legend (2015 . Representations are how people, places and things are shown in the media. More often than not representations are based upon stereotypes, stereotypes are a commonly held belief of a particular type of person, place or thing with at least a grain of truth to them.

  1. This is fine as a redraft Yousuf, you might want to check the name of the film Grimsby- I have a feeling that it may have been called The Brothers Grimsby in America due to cultural uncertainties about where Grimsby is and many of the non British audiences never really having heard of it.

    So you are fine now to commence your research and to get a range of primary and secondary sources to illustrate the points you wish to make. I would begin by establishing the stereotypes from a range of media products beyond the films you have chosen to study.
