Comparison of Trailers

                                                                                         

In addition to the similarities stated above, each trailer also made use of narration of some sort in the trailer, mostly from the characters themselves through using the dialogues of clips in the film. Most of the shots were in synch with the narration and so it helped drive the outline and basics of the story through the trailers.

Both Bronson and This Is England have their title at the end of their trailer and both use the main character in either a close up or medium shot as this helps reinforce the message being sent in the trailer that the story is about them. It also demonstrates the convention of British films using British actors as it helps target the niche audience of the film that would be Britain because only people in Britain will be familiar with most British actors as they star in films that are catered towards a British audience. Tom Hardy is an exception because since staring in inception he has become quite a big star in Hollywood.

All the trailers have some sort of soundtrack and it suits the mood that the trailer is trying to create. The This Is England trailer is very melancholy and fits in with the themes of loneliness and  anger that is felt in the various characters and helps push the story of finding a place to fit in and belong. The guitar and drum duet in the Bronson helps to emphasise the character whilst the classical music reinforces his insanity and the bombastic brass instruments make him seem like a celebrity.
