Similarities of the four Teenage Angst film I have researched

While researching Teenage Angst films and after looking at, Easy A, Footlose, Clueless and East to East, I recognised a few Similarities.

- There is always a central character which is normally a teenage girl.
Regina George is the centred and 'popular' teenager within the film 'Mean Girls'.
















 - The theme of the film is related to growing up Georgia and Ellen from 'Angus Thongs and Perfect Snogging' are applying make up which connotes growing up. 










- The setting/Location is either their homes or their high school/college. The image is a PE class in the film 'Mean Girls' this connotes teenage angst genre is centered around a high school/college.

- In films the lighting is mostly set as High-key - Props used are always related to the setting Olive from 'Easy A' at in a classroom with papers in front of her, this connotes that she is in education. However, she also has her phone in her hand, this connotes the obbession teenagers have with their phones.

- Voiceovers are common which are used to introduce the central character and other characters.


 - Colours and the style of fonts within the titles/credits are bright colours which connote funny to the audience. This is the title of the film 'Clueless' the title uses colours and stereotypically bubble writing which connotes to teenagers
















- Some can be animated
