Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 252 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations before we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing/reading on a weekly basis in an informal forum.

Stagecoach
As I have seen this movie twice. the social aspect of it meaning you have one side dallas and ringo represented the common folk or the masses of people who come from the bottomless pit of society and have do things that higher-ups in general look down upon. While ms malory, mr hatfield and mr gateword represent the elite, the upper classes. Only caring about themselves and money. later on though all the characters joined together to help one another. John ford's message was help your fellow man or woman anyway you can. A message desperate needed during last year of the great depression and following with the onslaught of WW2.
