4) As middle and upper classes are more educated and can be considered intellectual thus making it easier to understand the topics or themes that demonstrated in a typical Arthouse film.
5) The audience for both films, A Field In England and Chicken would be succeeders as they tend to be more goal orientated, have better work ethic and typically higher in management and professionals which can link to the idea of upper class and upper middle class being attracted towards both of these films.
