genre research (crime)

because we are doing a crime thriller i looked at some of the conventions of crime thrillers such as in nearly all crime thrillers the crime that is committed is normal a murder because this means that the case that the detectives have to solve means more because other people could get killed.
in most crime thrillers there is a main detective and his/her sidekick.the main detective will normally have something slightly odd about him e.g. in a wheelchair, has a weird hat, has a completely out of date mustash,has wierd glasses ect. the sidekick will normally ask unnecessary questions such as "so your saying this isnt a suiced"or"do you think this was a murder  when it is clearly obverse that that is what the detective is saying.in most murders in crime thrillers there will be something that you wouldnt find in the average murder that distinguishes the murder to a certain person e.g.the detectives discover that the victim was killed with a meat cleaver so they retrace it to a butcher. in most crime thrillers the is a big question asked like "how could he kill him if he wasn't there at the time " and then the question will be answered about ten minutes before the end of the film
