West Is West- Comedy Drama


West Is West- Comedy Drama
West is west was filmed in Bradford in England and Punjab near Chandigarh, a city in the north of India.
this film has a lot of mid legnth shots.
An immigrant father decides to take his truant son back to the old country because hes doesnt know himself anymore.
I like this film because it shows that racism should not be accepted in any part of the country, however i dislike it because it can get annoying.
Manchester, North of England, 1975. Khan family continues to struggle for survival.
Sajid, the youngest Khan, the runt of the litter, is deep in pubescent crisis under heavy assault both from his father's tyrannical insistence on Pakistani tradition, and from the fierce bullies in the schoolyard.
So, in a last, desperate attempt to 'sort him out', his father decides to pack him off to Mrs Khan No. 1 and family in the Punjab, the wife and daughters he had abandoned 35 years earlier. It is not long before Ella Khan (Mrs Khan No. 2) with a small entourage from Salford, England, swiftly follows to sort out the mess, past and present.

Newspaper Evaluation Project- The Daily Telegraph.


The newspaper was founded by Arthur B. Sleigh in June 1855 and since 2004 has been owned by David and Frederick Barclay.
the intended audience for this newspaper is older adults and old people because younger people wouldnt like reading it as it has complicated words and the topics are not interesting enough for youngsters.
The news values that are on this front page is negativity, bad news about a five year old girl who has been kidnapped.
 The Mid shots in the middle stand out a lot because they're at eye level and thats what would catch the readers attention first then they'd read whats there about the picture.
