I think it was interesting that the townspeople would not
help Kane even after everything he has done for them. From what the movie says Kane
has done just about everything he can to make this town better. He put Frank Miller
in jail because he murdered someone. You would think that the townspeople wouldn’t
want frank back in their town regardless of the type of business he brought
with him. Also when they were in the church and one of the men stood up and
said that “if the people up north heard about the violence Frank and Kane would
cause that they wouldn’t send companies down to their town because it might be
too dangerous” was a dumb comment to make because clearly when frank was in the
town it was already dangerous to begin with when he’s out getting drunk and
obviously killing people. I don’t think anyone in this town had very many
morals or respect for Kane at all. He asked for their help in his time of need
and they were nowhere to be found but they were perfectly okay with having him
clean up the streets for him prior to all of this.
I agree that the safety of the town's reputation was a dumb argument. It never made sense to me.
ReplyDeleteOn the English side, watch your capitalization and commas. With compound sentences, you need a comma where the period would have been in the first sentence: "He asked for their help in his time of need, and they were nowhere to be found, but they were perfectly okay with having him clean up the streets for him prior to all of this" (althoughthe sentence is also a run-on).
