Women are under represented

 In the Observer magazines from the 60s we see that Women are under represented. This reflects the current patriarchy society of the time. This value from the time is shown with the Lingerie adverts in the bottom corners of the magazines. This makes them seem weak and insignificant as they are not represented in politics or affairs of the state. Another under representation of Women can be seen with he pull quote "Jackie: we're very happy". This is from Jackie Kennedy being remarried and is her defending her second marriage. She is only here because she was married to JFK.

Finally, another underrepresentation of Women is that only one female politician is mention on the cover. This is Barbara Castle, she was part of the Labour government during the 60s. She was part of the support for the workers strikes also mention in the article. She is not here for her achievements but rather for her unusualness of being a female politician.

 Mise en scene

Camera work

Teenage dirt bags colour and saturation is quite bright and vibrant like that of a middle America sitcom

The uses of the camera work gives the viewer the impression of that both the band and the lyrics of the story are in shot. Only choruses does the camera focus on the artists like the pans in the chorus.

Editing makes the band seem like they are  part of the story which is the lyrics themselves with jumps between them both. both merge together at


Nick Cave Media magazine

 The picture of Nick cave is a stereotypical representation of older people facing an uncertain future

A pull quote says "there are a lot of grievers out there"

Nick Cave is presented and stoic and dark and sturdy in the image making him seem weathered
