In Alice's case, it seems as though an event happened where she became insane and that event has affected her ever since. I think that this is a very interesting comparison and I would like to watch the movie to personally compare them to each other and how their characters develop over the plot.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14228063886666033013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9204080274406469.post-31219519455839757662011-10-23T13:55:40.169-07:002011-10-23T13:55:40.169-07:00It's very interesting that you would make the ...It's very interesting that you would make the connection between Alice and Hitler, because I wouldn't immediately go there. But you're right, the do have a lot in common. More than just the insanity, they both have a group of loyal follower who do anything they tell them and they both have a goal to exterminate a population. Maybe it's power that makes people go insane.mdassohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00867583177732873832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9204080274406469.post-9340385463959229472011-10-23T09:21:39.347-07:002011-10-23T09:21:39.347-07:00I think it is also important to point out that suc...I think it is also important to point out that such insanity was developed over time and was caused by a significant event. As we have found out in Batwoman, for Alice it was primarily the traumatic event of the kidnapping, but for Hitler it was a combination of the death of his mother and the rejection of his art, amongst other things. No one really knows the exact cause of the individuals' insanity, but I think it is always important to ask why one is the way one is - such questions help one better understand the characters and their motives.AlexonGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16415862523387957415noreply@blogger.com
