British Social Realism themes and the news both have a strong link with each other. They both use the real world as their inspiration. Other films such as global mainstream films wouldn't have the negativity of the current issues. They would make sure that their films are positive and don't relate to the news as much. The themes that are used in British social realism are similar to stories that you would hear in the news. The stories in the news have these same types of themes such as drugs, crime, violence etc... An example for this would be a current story in the news of a young girl being given alcohol and then being raped. You would see this type of stories in British social realism films. This could relate back to the film 'Fish Tank'.
British social realism films explore the themes in their films through the situations (themes) they put their characters through such as poverty, violence, drugs, petty crime, etc... British social realism films use a lot of the themes in each film to make it seem like how life in Britain actually is.
In British social realism films there are always certain types of themes inside it such as violence, drugs, sex, alcohol, poverty petty crime and rebellion. These are the themes that we would always see in British social realism films as they are what we would see in reality. British social realism films try to relate back to the real world and how it actually is; a realistic film (verisimilitude). These themes are essential for a British social realism film as it portrays how the British life actually is such as someone getting mugged. This would be shown in a British social realism film.
