A while ago I watched the movie Robin Hood. I was trying to figure out what mode of literature it was. It was really hard. I came to the conclusion that it was an irony, but took a loop at the end to end good. One thing is that the main character, Robin Hood is not weak and stupid. Unexpected things do happen, like people get killed that seem like they shouldn't. It starts out the world is in chaos with war. Then the King of England dies. This really evil guy gathers an army of French and invades and destroys city after city. Right about when they should have destroyed another city, Robin Hood and an army stopped them. Then there was a huge battle with Robin Hood's army and the French. The French should have won if it was an Irony, but Robin Hood's army won. Robin Hood was tossed out of England for doing crimes but he and his new wife lived with these outcast people and with her narration at the end it seems like it was okay because she said everyone was equal and there weren't any laws with the outcasts. So I think it should have been an irony but ended good.
I would agree with you on that one, so the plot line had a little swoop upwards at the end. Sort of like The Christmas Carol, when he had his tragic flaw, but then he sort of changed himself after that. I'd agree with you,even though I didn't see the movie. Oh and I really like the layout of your blog.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen it but I think that you are right. The fact that in the end he gets thrown out doesn't seem very good to me, but if he was okay with it then I guess that is fine with me? Other wise I totally get your logic.
ReplyDeleteThat does sound confusing. I wonder if it's possible for a movie to not follow a mode.
ReplyDeleteThat's a good study of thoughts, Evan. Perhaps that is true, but therefore, maybe the directors and screenwriters aren't so smart after all.
