FamILY

In this most recent play, I really loved it!!!! While reading this play, I noticed that in the beginning how much I was attracted to a particular character, Austin over Lee. I thought that Austin was a good person, and hard working. He seemed to have many good qualities such as him being diligent, creative, and the 'good son.' While Austin holds the better image, Lee is slowly ruining his character. He is the total opposite of his brother, and seems to only have grotesque qualities. He is fat, unemployed, a thief, and uneducated. While Austin has a job and the american dream life, Lee is the classic white hillbilly trash. I first thought that Lee was the most single annoying person that hangs around to annoy his brother, he's like the little pest outside, crickets. He doesn't seem to want to do anything other than complicate his brothers life. When Mr. Kimmer comes into the scene, and Lee walks in around six and interrupts their meeting, I was for sure that he was trying to ruin the business plan between Austin the the Manager. But I keep getting surprised when different events pop up and become successive. At first, I was very surprised that Lee and Mr. Kimmer went and played golf together, and I was even more surprised and pleased when the business deal between them kicked off. As the Western is the soul idea of Lee, and he being so uneducated and producing a better product than his Austin, becomes an unbearable thought for him. I though at this moment when Austin does not support Lee, that he was selfish and un-wanting for his brother to succeed. When this happens I can't believe it because in family, I think that people should support each other in order for happiness to be a acquired. As all this happened, then I realized that Lee is the brother that earned my respect, and the brother that deserved success and happiness the most. I really liked reading this play, because it was easy to understand and very entertaining.
