Worlds Most Daring Crime Robberies
Expositionary modes

Theorist, Dyer, applies here greatly. We’re given a voice over of the action taking place, and the robbers are being placed in the wrong, by both the commentary and the expert opinions. They are being represented as the bad guys.

Theorist Rayner applies here too, because through this media, the real world is being represented as a crime polluted area that is not safe for anyone.
Perkins doesn’t apply here, because the stereotypes are simple. The robbers aren’t very smart; they are mostly brutal and quite angry and violent.

O’sullivan works here, because we are given a selected view of reality. There is a probability that the robberies take place because of a desperate need for money.





Todorov applies here, but only in the equilibrium, dis-equlibrium and then equilibrium again.
Strauss has a strong hold here, due to the fine being between the good of the store managers and employee’s against the villains of the robbers.

This documentary did have a persuading view to the audience, in the sense that it showed the criminals in a negative light, so the documentary is biased.


Our documentary could be considered biased based in the sense that we could be considered to be on the side of the people with tattoos, given that we're trying to help put them in a better light in society's eye, trying to help show people the truth behind tattoos, that not everyone who has them is a ruffian.
