The Effects Debate - Bronson

1. should images in your case study be censored - if so why?

There is alot of graphic violence, nudity and language throughout the film. But since the film is based on a true story, it's vital showing the brutality of Michael Peterson's existence

2. If you think your case study can have a negative effect on collective groups. Could it have a positive effect?

It could have a negative effect on people's ideas of the working class as they are seen as being very violent and unapologetic, it could also have a negative effect on the prison system as a criminal is depicted as a charismatic rebel in a stylistic film. It could have a positive effect on Michael Peterson himself, as he is now immortalised in this film and his story will reach wider audience

3. Do you agree that your case study could influence/change someone's behavior?

I think it could deter someone who is considering robbing somewhere by seeing how brutal prison can be, but then Peterson is so likable that in turn someone might want to be just like him. So I agree that it could influence someone's behaviour because it's designed in a way to get a response out of you
