Ysatnaf. b. Read the information about different types of films and complete
it with the words from ex. 1a. What three new genres have you
learnt? Give your examples of films.
There are different genres of film. (1. ...) films have a lot
of exciting effects like car chases and gun fights, involving
stuntmen (каскадеры / каскадзёры). They usually involve
“heroes" and "villains”, so war and crime are common subjects
.
(2. ...) usually involve a hero who goes on a quest to save the
world or loved ones. (3. ...) are funny films that make the
audience laugh. Romantic comedies (rom-coms) are usually
love stories about two people from different worlds, who must
cope with difficulties to be together. Rom-coms are always light-
hearted, but may include some emotion.
A situation comedy (sitcom) is a funny television or radio
show in which the same characters appear in each programme
in a different story. (4. ...) are films that are (or claim to be)
about real people and real events. (5. ...) are serious, and often
about people falling in love or needing to make a big decision in
their life. They tell stories about relationships between people.
(6. ...) are made for the whole family. They are mainly made for
children but often entertaining for adults as well. (7. ...) films
use fear to excite the audience. (8. ...) films are set in the future
or in outer space.
