What's in the news?


Outrage after pensioner's teenage killer freed and allowed to live just miles away from notorious murder
"A teenager who took part in the horrific murder of a pensioner is living just a few miles away after being released from prison.            
Sarah Davey was 14 when she and 15-year-old pal Lisa Healey killed grandma-of-three Lily Lilley in her terraced home in Failsworth, Greater Manchester.
They then crammed her body into a bin and walked it through the streets of Failsworth before dumping it in the Rochdale Canal."
This explores themes like violence, corruption of youth and murder which is largely used in BSR films corruption of youth is a big theme here seeing as the girls who murdered this woman were only 14 and 15. This is set in Manchester which is a location in Britain which applies BSR films. The possible protagonist here could be the pensioner and how life is for her and a narrative of the build of how and why the girls murdered her.

Anxiang Du trial: Businessman says "darkness" came over him before 'stabbing to death family of four', court hears
"A man accused of murdering a family of four told a psychiatrist that "darkness" came over him as he carried out the brutal stabbings, a court has heard. 
Anxiang Du, 54, is accused of knifing Manchester Metropolitan University lecturer Jifeng "Jeff" Ding, his wife Ge "Helen" Chui, and their two daughters, Xing "Nancy", 18, and Alice. 
After the killings at the family's home in Wootton, Northamptonshire, Du, who denies four counts of murder, fled to Morocco where he was eventually arrested and extradited back to the UK, the court has heard"
This explores the themes of murder, death and escape, these are all very typical of BSR films so using them in my own production would add to the realism of it. The protagonist here would be the murderer himself who reflects the violent behaviour of most characters in the BSR genre and also the narrative could be more or less a replica of the orignal story of that a man kills a family and is trying to escape.

Victim of 'evil' child rapist describes nightmares she is left with after his depraved attacks
"The victim of a child rapist has told how her "evil" attacker forced her to smoke and take drugs from the age of seven, and spoke of the devastating impact his assaults have had on her.
The 36-year-old, of Lytham Road in Blackpool, was found guilty of nine counts of raping a child and six counts of indecently assaulting a child after repeatedly abusing the girls at an address in Oldham between 2002 and 2008.
After plying the youngsters with drink and drugs, he would force them to watch pornography and perform sex acts on him, as well as raping and indecently assaulting them."
The themes here look at rape, violence, corruption of youth all are looked at in the BSR genre but rape is not so common and emulating it in my own production if I wanted to integrate it would be quite difficult. The narrative could look be of the girl who was raped at her current age and how the rape has effected her life in terms of how she gets by day by day while having exaggerated some possible outcomes to allow it to fit to the BSR genre.
