Themes, Style, Subgenre and Influences for our thrillers.

Here are the features we want to use in our thriller:

Themes: Deception & betrayal. Love? Romance. Corruption (organised crime), revenge, Loyalty & trust.

Style: Classic & realism.

Subgenre: Mafia/Gangster

Influences: Romeo & Juliet because it is the very basis of our synopsis, The Godfather because this is what we encorporated with Romeo & Juliet and we are also using narrative related ideas from it, such as the switch of protagonist. Chinatown because we used narrative related ideas from the film such as the idea of a slow developing narrative with the main twists coming at the end & Sin City was also because of narrative related ideas in particular the idea of switching protagonists also we liked the elements of film noir in it and we look to incorporate this in our own.
