2. Introduction
• Mainstream films are produced for a huge target
audience and as a result are widely advertised and
available in most cinemas worldwide. Contrastingly,
independent films are produced outside a major film
studio.
• The two films I will analyse are:
- The Hunger Games; Catching Fire
- Kidulthood
