Explore representation of issues in 'Breaking Bad' and 'Walking Dead'

There are many representations shown in Breaking Bad show to the audience these are cancer, drugs, murder, disability and race. Cancer is shown though out the series but is shown clearly with expressions in the scene when he finds out he has cancer in the hospital Walter blanks out so that everything is a blur and he cannot hear the doctor propaly because he is dealing with the shock. His expresion is blank as if he doesnt even care but it is because he cannot think straight. The connotations you read from his facial expresions that he is scared not just for himself but for how his family and friends are going to cope without him.

  1. This is a very brief answer, i think you could develop this a lot further. I like that you have focused on a specific scene. How can you develop your knowledge of his character? does the audience feel sorry for him? how are we positioned? how is he represented within the mise en scene? clothing, job, car, family etc?
