primeval notes

throughout the clip of primeval i identified there being a lot of non-verbal and verbal techniques being at use .one of the main clips that i aw this being uded ,was when the man (main protagonist )was being chased by a saber tooth lion .The gestures for this were the running and falling,could suggest he was hopeless and i need for help.this is were the women that aids him comes into the clip ,she holds the main role of the rescuer as she gets on to the truck to chase the saber tooth lion away .

the gender roles were reversed in this scne because its normally the girl that is hopeless and is mainly the damsel in distress ,and the man is usually the one to save her .however this clip that we viewed was some how different .at the begining of the clip,we saw a mna and women having some sort of an arguement.the women seemed to be angry and emotional and the man avengful,this goes back to the stereotypical way that men and women are represented in action films most of the time .

further into the clip we viewed a women shouting at a man to 'do something' and the other man with the gun  his hand ,the women was then thrown on to the ground was being over powered by him .
