@ Anchor Man
That's a strange example!

For the journalist to say that we shouldn't care about making films like this because they do draws on a lopsided comparison, to them all those gang films, the music and so on are stories, fiction, they're past their fudal times.... we on the other hand are still facing ours so its not fiction but gloryfied, perpetuation of a problem.

And I don't understand any of the above?

When we've cleared the hurdle and can stop and talk when a stranger asks us for the time in the street without having to keep walking in case he or she is on crack then we can make films on what it was like when the local dealer ran the estate, throw in all the effects and everything but until then I'm not intrested... this stoy is fine, makes its point but otherwise its out there off screen so why bother with it on screen? May as well sit in a car outside Brixton cinema and watch the dealers from there.

So are you saying there is not point in making the film while it is still a reality?
Ps why would you be scared to give a 'junkie' the time if they asked? Are you afraid to give a drunk person the time?
