white-American teenage girl, she acts in a psychopathic manner due to a school crush on a boy resulting in bullying and her taking her revenge. This may lead the audience to generalise this representation to a broad group of whiteAmerican people. This, obviously, isnt necessarily the case but could be interpreted by the audience in this way.
Teenagers
The narrative is strongly focussed on those who
are teenagers. The bitchy nature and nastiness encoded within the high school may appear to someone, who hasnt had much experience with that setting, that all high schools are like this and prejudge them based on what they have seen within my production. Although, the narrative would be briefly shown within the trailer so someone who couldnt relate to what they see on screen would be less likely to go and watch the actual production.
Boys
Younger members of the audience would see
this negative connotations of the representation of the boy who is shown in the film as the antagonists target and for boys they may assume that is how all boys act within society and may copy the behaviour as they think this is the norm. Whereas, girls may see how the antagonist reacts to the boy and they may generalise this to all boys and develop a hatred for boys which will affect their social behaviour.
