Made in Britain

The film ‘Made in Britain’, by Tim Roth in 1982 showed the world through the eyes of a juvenile skin head boy of the 80’s. The moral throughout the film was obvious, the fact that no one can overthrow an organisation in a higher position that you is a universal issue people face. I found it interesting how if I was watching this film 5 or 6 years ago I'd of looked at it in a completely differently way. Then I was still an adolescent who thought I knew best, I would have idolised the brash rebellious character, thinking the things he was doing was fun and right in telling the ones in charge where to go.  In contrast to this however, now I just found his actions frustrating. Knowing that he doesn't yet understand the consequences and the regret he will feel in the future irritated me. The use of dramatic irony, knowing the road the character is going down is not a good one, is only apparent depending on who’s watching. The reaction of this film all depends on the audience.
