The film's general release was on 26 March 2010 in the United Kingdom and on 16 April 2010 in the United States. The film tells the story of an ordinary teenager, Dave, who sets out to become a real-life superhero, calling himself "Kick-Ass". Dave gets caught up in a bigger fight when he meets Big Daddy, a former cop who, in his quest to bring down the drug lord Frank D'Amico, has trained his 11-year-old daughter to be the ruthless vigilante Hit-Girl.

Representations of Age

Apologies for missing today's lesson. Your task is to think about how age is represented in the media. Remember that most characterisations presented to us by the media are stereotypes. This makes them easy to recognise and understand. This applies very clearly to notions of Age in the media. As you know teenagers get a particularly rough deal from mainstream media. The same applies to the old. In pairs you need to make a very brief list of the most obvious stereotypes for both groups. Then you need to choose a young or old character from a TV drama and make a presentation based on their representation. Add as much detail as you can. Include pictures and clips to illustrate your points.Think about how fair and accurate the representation is. As a class you need to make sure you all look at a different character and that some of you look at older characters. We'll look at these presentations tomorrow.
