Overall

I'm done, finished for good. I read my christmas story, my book book about writing and learned to read as I watch TV. Both the books beside on writing based themself on ignorance and hidden feeling eithier to one self or phyically. On writing became more of a guide to read. All of them were straight foreword, mostly without metaphor or other literary devices seen in complex books. All of them were simple to understand, expressed great meaning and managed to make start reading again, if I time. I honestly thought these were good. Honest.

Anotation of the play

There are many notable differences in the play which are mostly abrigdements, cut short to save time or money. Also little details like abigail reaching for mary waaren, not physcially showing Giles being murdered by pressing, putting large stone slabs on his chest until he confessed but died first. There is no wipping of slave in the play ( maybe because of the civil rights movement era). There are others I'll reread again.

Exectutuion

He dies at the end, ironically speaking the 'deliver us from evil' . This doesn't happen in the book, instead it leaves off at 'give me my name' scene. the inconclusion in the offers urest and outrage for the audience. In the movie its ending provided an epic conclusion. Both are equally good in their own way. I especially like the retort, "I'll see you again in hell" to abigail. All in all it was great movie and play.

Part 1 some minutes in

I really hate the girl, In retrospect she is the witch in Salem; Aslo harlot a whore and temptress. She is truly the antagonist of whole movie. Proctor is the overall 'good' in this movie, despite sleeping with the antaganist. Both characters are realistic and fascinating in their own way. Abigail is victim of love and specifically Proctor, which  was a victim of her love. A very intresting confllict; she would do anything to gain affection and vice versa to Proctor. Under this the whole town would suffer.

The Crucible Movie

I didn't know the crucible was a play. And I have to read it...
Well, here goes. I read abut the salem witch craft in history class about a couple years ago. At first It was really scary and sad from that time. But now I am grown up, Im indiferrent. They tried over 20 people that weren't spared, sad really. Such ingnorace that comes with religeon, no proof of a physical nature. It feels to like a massacre, because of such motives but  not from one person but of mulitple accounts each with their cause and victim. In this convoluted time anyone in Salem (or the salem area) could be accussed of witchcraft, Thus marking death for that person. I hope nothing like this ever happens again.

End of the cacther

After that he became lost in New york. He a date with Good ol' Sally and blew up for her not accepting his offer( about running away). She leaves angry making Holden remorse and so goes to a bar and finds another friend good ol' luce which they talked showing their feeling toward women. He got a little too personal... and drunk. Feeling lost he goes home feeling anew. his plans to see her sister in motion, futher in time he messes up again. This time Phenobe finds out that holden got kicked off Pency.They argue and he tells heer about not 'liking anything' that was happening in pency. (He was jeolous of Stradler and  at the time, that was the real reason i think). then after talking  he leaves to the living room to call the antolini's, his former teacher.

Dacing shortly, holdens mom comes home, he hides under the cover.Her mother talks a bit before going away. He cries the most here, and scares Phenobe. It's like he didn't want to leave but had to. Then he goes to antoni's and the teacher monologues about literature, eduction and poetry. Turns out the guys a wiedo staring at Holden while he's sleeping, rubbing hair. He didn't care that he slept on bench but he cared about phenobe's chistmas play. The idea of death and the easy way way out (like being deaf ans crzy) seemed to grasp him at the end until... he saw how it was a effecting her, the grade A student, a whole life ahead of her, to go off with her brother and ruin her life.

To cheer her up he goes to the zoo, with her closely following 'I thought the corsel was closed in the winter' she said then she rode. It cheered him up and her.
The book ends in a monologue, It is unkown to me whether he stays or not.

Character anaylysis

The summary of chapter 12-14 would be this; He talks with simmons with this navy officer looking guy then leaves to go to the hotel. Then he hires a prostitute. She leaves,angry cut short on her money. Then talks to his bother ,his dead one and the pimp walks in asking for five dolloars. After losing five he started to cry and called him a moron. So he gets punched being left alone in his hotel room.

This might be the climax of the story. Hopeless depression and sex with a prostitute followed by imagination induced rage can really change a person. He also mention religeon and how he was an athiest. (I think this is why the book was banned, damn religious nuts
s).
