One key ethic of teen drama films is to cover as much ground as possible
with it's characters. The genre tends to feature characters of various
backgrounds & lifestyles - exploiting them all for their stereotypes -often
almost literally throwing them together in a small , confided space
waiting for the inevitable catastrophe.

It would be almost breaching the unwritten laws of teen dramas to be able to pinpoint a particular social
group to which the product may accurately represent . Similarly , it
would be difficult to pinpoint a particular social group to which the
product could appeal .

One major benefit to having such a wide array of characters lies in the
way that each character can epitomised a different social sector.

Wolph’s ethics & fashion choices reflect on that of the punk rock movement. Indeed in
the original script , Brooklyn asks “Why can’t you just do the respectable clique Punk boy thing and go straight edge already?”.
The character therefore not only not only reflects the particular social group , but also adds a sense of historic context to the product . This was also achieved with
John Bender in ‘The breakfast club’ .

Brooklyn possesses feminist ethics ,also reflected in ‘10 things I hate about you’
character , Katrina . This reflects feminists and adds further social context .

Eli’s eccentricism reflects on those who aren’t afraid to think outside of the box .
Not only does this achieve the same effect as ‘The perks of being a wallflower’s Patrick but it also encourages others to see
this as a healthy way of thinking.

First impressions , it seems that Solis represents School athletes and Luna shadows the “nerds” . Delving further into this , audience should pick up on how the twins mirror the common issue in the teenage –
those who are pressured by their parents .

Pixie represents the teenagers who thrive off maintaining a seemingly solid social
stance . This is also reflected in characters like Amanda Jones in ‘Some kind
of wonderful’ .
When Pixie finds her new friends , she learns about the idea of quality over
quantity .
