Research of my chosen genre

My chosen genre that I am going to use for my film opening is; Drama.

And according to http://www.filmsite.org/dramafilms.html there are several types of Drama:

• Social Problem Dramas, such as: I Am A Fugitive From A Chain Gang (1932)

• Mental Illness Dramas, such as: The Snake Pit (1948)

 



• Alcoholism Dramas, such as: The Country Girl (1954)

 

•  Disaffected Youth and Generational Conflict, such as: The Wild One (1953)



 

• Race relations and civil rights Drama, such as: Bad Day at Black Rock (1955)

 

• Courtroom Drama, such as:12 Angry Men

•  WWII Homefront Drama, such as: Since You Went Away 



 

 

The type of drama that I'm going to be focusing on is WWII Homefront Drama. I always find that these types of dramas capture a variety of peoples attention. for example if you really enjoy History then this would be a good genre to watch because you can either sit and enjoy the history or watch it and examen whether the history is totally correct.

 

What Dramas should include:

According to http://www.filmsite.org/dramafilms.html dramas should include serious presentations or stories with realistic characters and life settings. Also each of the subject-matter themes have different kinds of dramatic plots. Because of Drama is such a huge genre in itself it has developed different genres for example; Crime Films, Melodramas, Epics (historical dramas), Biopics or Romantics.
