Language is used in the film "The Full Monty" effectively to suggest their lifestyles. For example they carry a regional accent as they are from Sheffield. The way in which Gaz and Dave talk in front of Nathan, Gaz's son, tells us that they are carefree and dont have rules as to watch he teaches his son. For example when he sees Nathan on the weekend, he takes him out to steal bar of steel from the desolate factory to sell, telling Nathan not to worry as he can't get a criminal record until he is 16. This is not the kind of things he should be teaching his son however he is carefree on the matter. He also offers to take Nathan to the jobclub for a day out on the weekend. This is shocking to the audience as you would think that the little time he gets to spend with Nathan he would make the most of it and take him somewhere enjoyable for Nathan, like a football match.
Gaz's manner in front of his son is inappropriate. We know this by the things he makes his son do and how we talks in front of him.. For example, after encouraging Nathan to steal from the factory, when walking home they pass a woman. Amongst themselves, Gaz and dave rate her out of 10 and Gaz says "you can never tell without seeing their tits." This is inappropriate language and manner infront of Nathan. This is teaching him inappropraite language and behaviour and also disrespect towards women.
