Evaluation Activity 2

How does your media product represent particular social groups?

One character in another film who I think Jennifer is similar to would be the character Jenny Mellor from An Education. Jenny's character is stuck in a relationship with a character who manages to charm her over. This is similar to the relationship shown between Jennifer and Dylan in our opening two minutes.

Both characters have similar appearances and both wear makeup, this could be in an attempt to hide their true personality, and fool themselves into thinking that they are not vulnerable.

The costumes of both characters are also fairly similar, with nothing too special being worn.

One main difference between these two characters would be the fact that originally in the film An Education, Jenny did not realise what she was getting herself into, and allowed her partner to could her view of what he was really like. Whereas Jennifer knows what relationship she is stuck in, and is conscious about her vulnerability and is constantly looking for a way out.
