Pleasantville Discussion

In our class dicsussion we are trying to compare the ideas in the film Pleasantville to those in the book Fahrenheit 451. If you didn't get to express your ideas in class, add a comment here. Remember that the expectation is that you will contribute at least two comments (either in class discussion or on the blog) while we are watching the film.

In both pleasntvill and fahrenheit 451, the government or the town seemed to attempt to make a eutopia. For example in the book Fahrenheit 451 the students at school were always playing games and never seemed to have to do any work, in pleasntville nothing seemed to ever go wrong, the basketball team never lost or missed a shot. Also, Mildred, in the book Fahrenheit 451, seemed to try to dodge all things that were not happy and and pretend it didn't matter. in pleasntville everyone always went through the same routine and it never changed.
