Colonel Jessep is then convicted of the murder of Santiago, although he never understands his responsibility for the crime committed. Similar to the movie, Milgram’s The Perils of Obedience discusses the same issues of obedience to authority and how far people will go in pleasing their authority figure even if it means ignoring their own beliefs and morals. Milgram observes through a personal experiment that people will go to extreme measures to please
Laertes unlike Hamlet and Fortinbras is dangerously upfront about his revenge and will stop at nothing until he deems his judgement given. At one point Laertes even states he’d be willing “To cut [Hamlet’s] throat i' th’ church” (Act IV, scene vii, line 140)This quote shows how Laertes will stop at nothing to avenge his father even if it means making himself damned for eternity, along with the culprit, However this quote serves another purpose it defining how very different Laertes and Hamlet are. Since it is the direct opposite of what Hamlet does when he sees Claudius praying (Hamlet refuses to kill Claudius). Simply put, Laertes moves quickly and acts rashly in his anger, choosing to act first and apologize later. Which he admits to, when he speaks “I am justly killed with mine own treachery.” (Act V, Scene ii, line 323) Second of the men is the prince of Norway, young Fortinbras.
He left his son to fulfill a dream. He saw things and described what he saw with great expression and feeling. He went through turmoil and didn’t give up. God was the light, the reason for his voyage. I can do everything through him who gives me strength.
This ultimately marks the nearing end of his journey in his tale of reclaiming a sense of freedom and power over his life. Furthermore, director Elia Kazan directly mirrors this quote from his past with his testimony of “naming names” to The House of Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC), with him being glad that he did the right thing and has no regrets of it. Through the fictional representation of Terry Malloy, Elia Kazan has justified his actions through the film. On the Waterfront ultimately follows the story of a young man in his fight for power over his own life. Terry is initially seen as a “bum” in the commencement of the film, but as it progresses, his character changes and evolves through self motivation, help and support from Father Barry and Edie Doyle paving him the way, hence Terry is successful in claiming back power over his own life and also, gaining a sense of freedom from
Two young Marines are charged with murder after they performed a “code red” on another Marine under orders from their superior officer. A “code red” is a hazing procedure that is not part of the official Marine discipline, but something rather commonly done at Gitmo. Private Santiago died, even though that was completely unexpected, and so they were charged with murder. Kaffee and Galloway defend them in court martial Violates the basic abligation of the public
In the text Willy asks if he Bernard didn’t give him the answers, basically condoning for his son to cheat (Miller 92). An American dream is not achieved by cheating, it’s achieved by hard work, something Willy Loman never taught his sons. Appearance and being well liked have nothing to do with success and the American
You will work for a while, you will be caught, you will confess, and then you will die." (Orwell 176). Despite hearing these words Winston's uncharacteristic belief in Brotherhood shielded him from comprehending and he did not appear to be swayed in any way, shape, or form. The hope that O'Brien inspires is setting Winston and Julia up for a fall, thus being the most important
That's why all suicides are morally questionable, because next to your family, and social-circle, the paramedics, the police, the coroner, they all lose something, in having to clean you up. To what extent is a police officer morally obligated to assess whether a person he or she shoots actually wants to be killed? I believe there isn’t an extent because if a person tries to point a weapon at you there intention is to kill not just to injury unless they want to commit suicide in this
Also, he is afraid for his family here and their reputation. After everyone has been questioned, Arthur says this: “It doesn’t matter much now, of course, but was he really a police inspector?” “Well, if he wasn’t, it matters a devil of a lot.” He says this after the Inspector has left and shows that even if the Inspector was a fake and tricking him then it did not happen and everything could go back to normal. This showed that if the Inspector was not real, he felt he did not have to take any responsibility for Eva’s death and Arthur felt relieved. Arthur also says that if it was more than one girl, it makes a difference as well because he may have only sacked one of
