Shane Meadows

For film language we looked at the work of Shane Meadows and his way of following the tradition of British social realist film making.
But what is realism, our lecturer described it as 'a tangible representation of lived experience' and after discussing Meadows work we watched the film 'Dead Man's Shoes'

Often in film screenings i get really bored and zone out as many of the films aren't to my taste but i found myself loving every minute of Dead Man's Shoes, it was such an interesting story and told in such an interesting way with the use of sound and flashbacks, it really engaged me and i was so shocked at the ending, i genuinely didn't see it coming. After watching this, i definitely want to watch more of Meadows work.
