This clips shows a positive representation of race and ethnicity. It shows a typical Muslim man accepting that his son's friend Maxxie is gay. This is positive as the typical Muslim man that he father seems out to be does not usually accept gay people and believe it is wrong. This clip shows Maxxie not going to Amwar's party as he doesn't feel accepted and doesn't like it that Amwar's family doesn't know he is gay and Maxxie believes that he will not be accepted by Amwar's family. At first it shows Amwar admitting to his father that his friend Maxxie is gay, however his father doesn't listen and carries on talking to Maxxie about food, this gives the impression that he is ignoring him cause it is not what he wants to hear however once Maxxie admits it to Amwar's father he automatically goes quiet and listens to everything he has to say. Amwar's father at first gives the impression of disappointment and shocked through his facial expression going from smiling to nothing but then to smiling again. This then shows him understanding that people are different and not everyone believes in the same thing as Muslims. The clip then finishes with Amwar's father saying 'Come Maxxie, the food is ready' this gives the impression that Maxxie is welcome and Amwar's father accepts Maxxie for who he is.



Taken 2 trailer- Albanians represented as gangsters:
This trailer shows a negative representation of race as it is showing that all Albanian's are dangerous and gangsters. The clips shows the Albanians planning to kill Bryan Mills (Liam Neeson) and killing all of his loved ones. This creates the impression of violence and the idea that all Albanian's are the same and violent. It also gives the impression of intimidation and being the leader. Mise- en- scene creates this representation of violence and danger by the clothes being worn, such as black clothing which creates the impression of mystery and danger. Also wearing black clothing it blends into the background and they look normal to people around them.
