Sapphire

In the film Sapphire, black people are represented in an odd and old-fashioned way. For example when a black man appears on the screen dramatic music is played as if to say ‘wow a black man.’ Black people in this film are also seen as the party people and are always out, they are also seen in poorer parts of London.

Furthermore they are seen as the criminals of the crimes in the film and for a long time in this film the audience feels as if it was one of the black men involved with sapphire.

Also white people are very prejudice towards the black people in this film and this is emphasized when we find out who actually killed sapphire is a white women and she did it because Sapphire was teasing her about having ‘yellow baby’
