The Big Issue Front Cover Analysis

Masthead: As the masthead is bold it stands out from the other text, the background and the other elements on the front page which makes it catch the audience's eye at first glance which tells them what magazine they are reading straight away. On magazines sold in shops the masthead is usually spread out across the whole of the top section of the page, whereas the masthead for The Big Issue is only on one side of the page and it changes which side it is on for different magazines; for this magazine it is on the left. The masthead might not be the largest text on the page but it doesn't need to be as it is sold on the street so therefore it isn't sold right next to other magazines meaning it doesn't have the competition.

American Beauty-Scene Analysis

Representation: Lester is represented as a non-stereotypical 'Alfa male' character, as usually men are in charge of the house and they protect their family. Whereas he is very submissive, he is not in charge of the house, he gets told what to do and bossed around by is wife, Carolyn, he also gets treated like a child. Lester is an unhappy and depressed character and it really shows through by the way he acts and talks on a day to day basis. It comes across to the audience that he's not even allowed to talk in his own house about how he is feeling as he mutters under his breath quite a lot in the scene. As he gets treated like a kid he also acts like one as he is quite argumentative. The way Lester acts and is presented makes the audience kind of feel sorry for him as we, as an audience, know that he has depression therefore there is a reason for him to act in such way and his wife and his daughter, Jane, don't know what the audience know. This is called dramatic irony....
