CCR Question

• How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues?

In many films there are conventions that the lower class people are unintelligent, lack hard work, and caught up in illegal activities. 

While sometimes this is truth, there are many lower class people who are much smarter than people who are more successful. In our opening we wish to challenge this convention and give the poor a image they deserve. Since crime/ mafia films take place in infested cities, it makes sense to have a lot of civilians walking in the background of the city.

 A common stereotype is that lower class people aren't well spoken or mannered. In our opening the lower class civilians will be sophisticated and intelligent. Another way we can represent the lower class in a positive way is to have them well dressed in contrast to the typical homeless looking attire we see in media.
