Micah is this manly sort of man who feels that he can take care of the demon and his girlfriend. Katie becomes extremely annoyed by the antics of Micah and tries to find help in other Zhao 1 ways. Another reason why I enjoyed the actors was because they made everything seem so real. They made the sleeping, the arguments, and the existence of demons real.

"Modern comedy is cruel and cynical” Barry Cryer. To what extent do you agree that cruelty and cynicism are at the heart of the comedy in ‘Educating Rita’?

In my career in the United States Navy, I have witnessed and experienced numerous cases of sexual harassment. Consequently, I personally know and understand how sexual harassment can truly affect a person emotionally, physically, and mentally.
