How does the way men are represented in Get Carter reflect the time in which it was made?

Men in Get Carter are represented as being dominant and in control. This reflects the time in which it was made as women generally had a lower status in society than men. This is shown in key scenes throughout the film. We first see this in the opening scene of the film. In this scene we see Carter and the Fletcher brothers watching pornography, as well as this one of the Fletcher brothers has his hand on Anna's leg, this signifies that he has ownership over her. He can command her and control her, further proving the point that men are represented as being dominant and in control. Another scene in which this is shown is after Carters brothers funeral, where Carter is questioning Margaret over his brothers death. When Margaret does not give him the information he wants, he grabs her and drags her back over to him, this shows that once a male in this film feels threatened, they are prepared to use force in order to retain their masculinity. Men in this film are also represented as viewing women as being below them. This is shown when Carter brings Thorpe into Edna's house to question him. When she threatens to call the police, Carter dismisses this claim as if it is nothing and asks her to "make us a nice cup of tea" attempting to reward her by "letting her watch". This shows that women are not seen as a threat in this film and are dismissed almost like children.
