MyBecause Selected Video

An in depth look at the motivations of the Reverend Samuel Parris.In this video we analyse what Reverend Parris says at the beginning of the play and how he changes his mind from being against the witch trials to being for them and then back to being against them. What is prompting this change? Is he concerned for the people or is there something else? http://www.deeper-roots.co.uk/...

We're doing this play for our winter performance, I've sent a link on our groups facebook page to help them analyze their characters. Thank you :)

Unfortunately, the 1996 film of "The Crucible" is only minimally faithful to Arthur Miller's play.

Correct me if I am wrong but I think Reverend Parris has a change of heart when Abigail leaves because he sees what a true liar she has been and that every person in the village were telling the truth. Prior to it, it seems he believed every word she said since he is her guardian and uncle and like any relative and family member, he was willing to protect her at all costs and believe her.

@creasonbryan That's a good point and not something I'd previously thought of. I suppose it serves to show his slippery nature. Although I do have a suspicion that Miller might have exaggerated him somewhat. But what do I know?

I think by Act 2, his reasons for backing the court might've been more than just reputation reasons. Danforth had made it pretty clear that anyone against the court was probably getting a new rope necklace. Just idle thinking. Very good videos, BTW!

I'm having to currently play Rev. Parris as part of a showcase this term during in college. This video has really helped me understand the characters objectives, thanks a lot.

Ahh man why did I wait til it was too wait to discover these? Well of course he's concerned with himself and his reputation. He's completely full of himself and he tries so hard to be the hero among the madness.
