Ideology and Binary Oppositions.

Examples of binary oppositions in this clip:

The audience may have many binary oppositions but these would be the main ones.

• Good vs Evil
• Hero vs villain 
• Rich vs poor 
• Strong vs weak
• Clever vs stupid
• Upper class vs Lower class

In this interview, we can see that Russel Brand is representing the working class. He relates to the audience much more in comparison to Nigel Farage. Russel Brand says during the interview to the audience that he is 'just like you'. Which shows he can relate to the audience and engage with them, and most of all understand where they are coming from. He also talks about being brought up in a similar environment as the audience, and tries to turn them against Nigel Farage, by saying that Nigel was brought up in a more privileged environment. By Russel doing this, he can get the audience to level with him more easily as he shows them he understands their struggles.

Finally, another common ideology that has been present during this clip has been that the countries system needs to be changed. This is because majority of the audience are confused on where the money (from the economy) has gone and where it is. Both Russell and Nigel want a tremendous change to society, however their values and opinions is what makes their ideas differ from one another. In addition, this ideology of 'change' is the key and main thing that all members of the public share in common /based on this current situation). Therefore, one of the most common ideologies present during this talk was the need for change in society and in the government.

This film has many binary oppositions the main one would be good vs bad as the film consists of this man who is fighting for justice. the film trailer represents the lower class succeeding to become a higher class and the protagonist increases recognition. The binary oppositions are between the protagonist and the antagonist. The protagonist being an American and the antagonist being from another country. This is also seen with the law and civilians in the court room when the judge takes away the child from her farther. There is also a binary opposition between the protagonist and the bank.

This film presents men to be a stronger figure than women as they are presented to be more violent and especially in this film their appearance is portrayed to be even stronger. The protagonist is strong and is usually a white male. Women are seen to look after the man and children. This is a common ideology as it shows how they are portraying men as the main figure.
