Documentaries
I decided to find a couple of documentaries about the decade just to examine them and see what needs to be shown in films to keep them authentic. This is also to see what went on within the decade.
- New technology was being created, electric lights, trains etc
- black and white cameras
- old world - based on land and owning it vs. new order - industry. This clash was obvious in Germany
- the use of transportation seem very important as it appears many times in the documentary.
- Germany most powerful destination in the world
- Germany had sick, accident and maternal benefits - most modernised country
- there was a lot of poverty and protest - needs to be considered for film depending on what social class.
- very smart dress
- Germany very military influenced
- 12.38 - look at the clothes - womens head dress
- 12.41 - moulin rouge
- France - still all about land there/ cared about proper food and caring for themselves
- France and Europe
- first flight across the channel
- Carriages were still being used even when they had cars - IMPORTANT
- Army in France became important because of fear of Germany

- British people moved all over the world to start british population in other areas - New Zealand/ Australia etc.
- working class family couldn't afford decent clothes or food.
- working class population - 30.7% under the poverty line 23.19

- England had a problem with class struggle - NEEDS TO BE CONSIDERED FOR FILM
- womens rights
- southern Ireland looking for home rule
- France and England joined forces

- the first few shots show people and their outfits - Take into consideration for costumes/social class
