Social groups portrayed by the media in cinematography

There aren't any major social groups portrayed in our film opening, aside from maybe the stereotypical businessman. However, we have tried to keep our film separate from themes showing social groups in specific ways, in an attempt to avoid any discrimination, or to make our film seem generic, however, we have used a stereotypical business man in our film. We did some research and found the film 'Falling Down', which is based on the bad day of a businessman (played by Michael Douglas) who loses his mind as his day gets progressively worse as he tries to get home for his daughter's birthday.
This is another example of a film where an 'average joe' businessman's day is turned upside down by something extraordinary.

This scene is an example of where the man is annoyed and takes it out on innocent bystanders:
