In my trial HSC i talked about the value of multicultural societies in each text. Basically saying that in the historical context of Emma, black people were servants, no more, and infact were not even part of the story "Emma" period. Whereas in the historical context of "Clueless" you have numerous black people... murray, dionne etc.
IMO, Heckerling has done this deliberately to show how society has changed over time, and how we have come to accept different cultures, backgrounds etc.
I haven't been told specifically on what to do with this topic... include it or not... Emma vs. Clueless isnt my strongest topic, and i dont have a lot of material so im hoping with some of your help (hey, why not all of your help! lol) then i might be able to turn this basic idea into an essay topic to use next Wednesday
Thanks
Oh yeh one more thing... if this turns out to be a bad idea, what would u recommend as something to use for Values? All this time i been using themes, then i read the markers guidlines and realised ive been getting it all wrong!!!
