Representation analysis

 
The wolf of wall street:
In this movie the men (in the wall-street) are represented as greedy to keep on making money an have fast cars and big houses also have good looking women the american dream. Leonardo Dicaprio is suggested to have wealth however greed takes the best of the character he is playing a character who commits different types of fraud an money laundering as it has now got the best of him. furthermore, because of his rise in wealth his path ways to drugs has an addiction this suggest that 1980s had a high demand for the use of drugs. In the wolf of wall street trailer there is a conversation between Dicaprio and Matthew Mcconaughey at around 0:30 it was information conveying no one knows about the stocks its all just a gamble in there line of business (the stock market).
secondly, black people have no representation in the trailer there is no non-white people this could suggest the racism in the 1980 in the wall street as it was still around during this time however this could also suggest there was no dream for black people an did not have the right mind set.
