Theorist: Philo

Philo argued that contemporary 'hoodie cinema' reflects middle class anxiety about the threat of the working class. This shows that anyone under middle class is inserted into this 'hoodie cinema' which is basically summing up that in all films that if you are not middle class then you are a thug in a hoodie. This is shown in films like Attack the Block and My Brother the Devil but not in Fast Girls as Shania, the main character is not middle class like Lisa, but she still works hard to achieve her dreams.
