Green Street

The third and final film I analysed was Green Street, this is the most popular of the three. The opening scene in this film is a group of rowdy wisecracking cockny lads walking up the stairs intoo a train station. They are cearly football fans as they are chanting, and are kicking a can around like a football. They soon bump into rival fans and exchange some heated words. This then turns quickly into a fight, with a flurry of camera movements, they are out on the street mid brawl. Props are used to make the fight more brutal such as bollards and phoneboxes. The general misse en scene of the clip leads towards a confrontation of some sort. It is a very eary place in the train station, with trains passing for creepy effect. The opening fight scene finishes at 2:25 with a man being knocked out, and the sound of sirens rapidly approaching.

 
 This image really gives a hard hitting impression of what the film is all about. Here a man has his face repeatedly smashed into a steel bollard by the side of the road.
