Deadman Reflection - 1503 Words

To truly understand Deadman, you must be able to understand how the movie is set up. It is common to not be able to understand many concepts in life from one person’s point of view. Lucky for the viewers of Deadman there are multiple ways to map the movie. In the following paragraphs I will fully explain one way to map out the movie Deadman; by just watching the train ride in the beginning of the movie views will learn to understand what is going to happen throughout the whole movie without even watching the movie. I will also go over some very important concepts that are done in Deadman that some without prior knowledge would most often not understand. As viewers watch the beginning of Deadman, some may find themselves feeling very bored.†¦show more content†¦Throughout the movie, just as the train ride shows, the scenes will drastically change. When Dead Man first starts the setting is Cleveland; land of the rich and wealthy. The people are all wearing suites and live a city lifestyle. The vibe that is given off is a very modern vibe, as though most people shop and have others do everything for them instead of being completely independent humans.

When he goes out and meets a woman, Thel Russel. She is the start of all of William Blakes problems. Next in the map the viewers will notice that the men that are on the train are not dressed even half as nice as the men from Cleveland. The hair looks very unkept and gross. Their outfits seem to be very worn and like they were not washed very often. Moving this concept from the map to the movie is not hard once the correlation is made.

Although most of Cumnor’s capitalist farmers were Bertie’s tenants (see Table 4), Blake’s Lower Whitley Farm was leased from the Morrell family, the freehold of Ward’s Bradley Farm was held by Merton College and William Deadman was himself the owner of the largest part of the land he farmed at Henwood.
