the movie PHILADELPHIA?
can you please answer these questions for the movie PHILADELPHIA? I already watched the movie and took notes on it, but i really need help answering these questions. I don’t understand how to put them. please help me. thanks::
1) What is the major topic/them of the movie?
2) What major political science concepts (socialization, political culture, government structure, civil liberties, elections, voting behavior, public policies) are used in the film? examples.
3) How can this film be applied to a further understanding of Government and Politics?
1.) Discrimination against people with AIDS/HIV and to a lesser extent, homosexuals.
2.) Well…It’s about a man who is fired from his job not because of his job performance, but in spite of it (he does an excellent job) but he is fired for no other reason than he has HIV and he is a homosexual. Which is illegal of course, but because it’s a crew of lawyers firing him, they know how to make it appear otherwise, or at least attempt to.
3.) I think the answers to 1 and 2 should cover that, if not, try reading some professional reviews of the film, that will probably be a big help in understanding it.
