ANTSIJ Stuff #2

Hiya y'all.
Here we go:
  1. Irony:
    1. One examply of irony in this play is that Henry Williams spent all this time being a slave and escaping, but then dies when he is free.
    2. Another example of irony is how Waldo is supposedly doing all of this stuff to stop the war and to get peace, but then goes into a war with Henry.
    3. Also, Waldo gets mad at Henry for being removed from Concord but saying how things should be, but this entire time Waldo has been in England saying how things should be.
  2. Characters:
    1. The most important, of course, is Henry. I would choose Johnny Depp to play Henry just because Henry believes that living simpler is actually smarter, and Johnny Depp plays a lot of characters that may seem mad on the outside but are actually quite smart, like Henry. Also I just like Johnny Depp :)
    2. Waldo is also a very important character, and I think that Richard Griffiths should play him because for one, he is old, and also he plays a lot of characters that look like they're doing good on the outside, but really are not doing very much on the inside, like Waldo.
    3. I would say that another important character is John, and I think that Colin Firth should play him because John is a very peaceful and calm character and, well, Colin Firth just seems right for the job. Of course, all of my actors would have to adopt American accents ;)
  3. I think that Henry's protests are succesful in the end because the war ended. It may not be because of his protests, but his goal was acheived nevertheless.
Well that's it for today, Hasta los Tacos! Maybe I'll do my next post in Spanish...
