The music speeds up the rhythm and becomes more happy as the narration starts to tell us where the
story takes place and where. “It began in 1985 in a town just outside Boston. It was Christmas eve and

being set and what events are going on.

All of this was not a genre signifier yet. However, the next line was, in fact, a huge one. The narrator
then says “It is a time where all the kids gather and pick on the Jewish kid”. This type of comedy is
called black/dark comedy as we find other people’s misfortune funny.
