I created this moodboard of Teen Angst main characters in order to explore the types of characters created in order to attract the audience. From this I discovered that the majority of the characters were female. One reason could be that the main audience for teen angst films is intact teenage girls, meaning that if the main character was female, they would be able to relate to them more. However, on a few occasions where one of the main characters is shown to be male is where there are more than one main character. This is shown in Footloose, Grease and the breakfast club. The reason for included both female and male main characters in Footloose and Grease would be because the storyline revolves around them falling in love. It also shows both of their points of view in the film, which enables all audiences to have some element of relatability within the film.
