Billy Elliot is a 2000 film written by Lee Hall and directed by Stephen Daldry. Set in the fictional town of 'Everington' in the real County Durham, UK, it stars Jamie Bell as 11-year-old Billy, an aspiring dancer, Gary Lewis as his coal miner father, Jamie Draven as Billy's older brother, and Julie Walters as his ballet teacher. In 2001, author Melvin Burgess was commissioned to write the novelisation of the film based on Lee Hall's screenplay. The story was adapted for the West End stage as Billy Elliot the Musical in 2005; it opened on Broadway in 2008 and Australia in 2007.What media studies theories can be applied to billy elliot and this is england?
audience, audience, audience!!
TIE fits typical generic conventions of a movie trailer. Uses non diagetic soundtracks, no voiceover. Look as Historical/Political aspects as well as Economic and Social. Both set in 1980's, Billy Elliot was made then but TIE was made i 2007 = more economic background.
I'm doing this exam later!
