Something something West...

I can't remember the title of the play we are watching in class (sorry Mr. Kunkle!) but I do think it is verrrrry interesting :)

In the beginning I was confused as to what something in the West would have to do with a screenwriter and his drunken slob of a brother. I was intrigued by the brother's actions and his desire to steal people's TV's, toasters, and other household appliances. As the story went on, we discovered that the screenwriter was jealous of his brother and vice versa...what was really surprising was when the drunken brother went behind his brothers back and convinced Saul (I can't remember anyone's names..I think that was his name) to pick his own movie instead of his brothers.

This was a big turning point in the movie, it forwards after a while to a time where the screenwriter brother and the drunken brother have switch roles. Now the previous responsible one is rolling on the floor drunk and making toast from the toasters he stolen and the previous intoxicated brother is sitting at the typewriter telling the other one to shut up.

I could obviously see that the characters had switched places and roles in their relationship. What I didn't expect was the two brothers getting drunk together...I thought they would both take the high road. I'm excited to see the end of the movie and what happens when the mom comes home!
