la haine

i thought that overall la haine was a fairly good movie. The use of black and white film woked well at helping to establish bleakness of the estates and the situations the main characters find themselevs in.The way the characters were written, so when they started getting harased by the police or mourning the death of a friend i found myselfs sympathising with them. The use of real life footage of riots in france gave the film context and helped me better understand what is happening with in the film. one small problem with the film is that the story is a bit disjointed this was not such a big problem as as i have said before the characters were well written.
