What characteristics of Hollywood can be seen in the trailer?
In this trailer there is barely any characterises which match up to a Hollywood trailer. This is obviously shown in this trailer as it is filmed in a council estate area and public transports are used whereas with a Hollywood trailer it would be set some where more posh. A charteristic which is Hollywood would be the review of a magazine of the movie and also this movie shows the film character’s name towards the end. This film is very low budget which is very opposite to a Hollywood movie.
