The extract presents many ethnicity stereotypes which is highlights through the use of sound. At the beginning of the clip, non diegetic sound is playing. The use of non diegetic sound is being used here to create a sense of curiosity for the audience. This suggests to the audience that the man may be doing something he shouldn't which contributes to a stereotype of black people being 'up to no good' or dangerous. The stereotype of black men being unapproachable is highlighted by the diegetic conversation between the man and the women. The woman tries to talk to the man, however he ignores her and walks away which suggests that the man is not friendly which may imply that he is dangerous.




Non diegetic sound is used again as a black man steps out of his car. The music creates an cold atmosphere which contributes to the stereotype that black people are dangerous as the sound creates a intimidating atmosphere. The stereotype of black people being dangerous is highlighted again by the diegetic sound when the man storms into the house with the women. He speaks to her in an angry tone which creates the image that the man is dangerous and violent. The white woman then tries to calm the man down which supports the stereotype of white people being upper class as upper class people are stereotypically less violent and calmer.
The man begins to shout at the women as she pleads at him to let her go. This indicates that the man is violent and the women is weaker. At the end of the clip the man is presented as an un -stereotypical black man as you can hear him crying and the non diegetic sound creates a sad atmosphere. This goes against a stereotype of black men being angry and violent as it shows the man as weak which is not a common stereotype.
