Huck Finn and Jim

Jim is portrayed as Huck friend and they prank each other and Jim tells Huck his fortune. Huck sees Jim as a friend and when he sees him in the woods he gets really happy that it was Jim because he has a familiar relationship with him. Huck is always told that slavery is OK, but with his bond with Jim he starts seeing slavery in another perspective. Jim is portrayed in the Disneymovie as the fortune teller who tell Huck and advice to stay away from his father. He is very kind to Huck and gave him god advice mostly because he likes Huck. Jim in this next clip of a the online movie is shown as a family man who loved his wife but had to leave. He is shown as sympathetic and kind. In the VCR movie Jim is shown as nice black man that helps Huck but he isn't as nice as the movies before and is shown as kind of taking advantage of Huck by getting his money.

Pap is uneducated and is pissed that he can't get Huck's money. He gives a drunken speech about the government and how the people that are running it are uneducated and stupid. This speech is very ironic because pap is a very uneducated person who was drunk at the moment, but he was complaining about the government and how the leaders are stupid. This speech in the book gave us a look at how the people were thinking back then and how most of the poor whits were not educated, but still criticized the government for making stupid decisions. I think this is the writers way of making fun of the mentality of the poor whits who criticized government.

Pap is very angry at his son for knowing how to read and speak properly. In chapter 5 pap asks Huck to read and once he had read properly pap gets mad that Huck knows how to read unlike him. Pap grew up in an environment where no one learned how to read and if you did know how to read you were most likely a snob. Pap can't be happy for his son because he is so caught up in the chances he never had. Huck seems not offended but i can imagine he is hurt that his dad doesn't want him to become anything or be a better man than he is.

In the first clip I saw a lot of exaggeration of how the fairy god mother was trying to convince her of wanting so many things. I saw reversal through out the clips because it is changing for one perspective to another. They did and parody that exaggerated a song and added special effects and lots more for a comic effect. The incongruity was when the ginger bread man turned really large because it came out of know where.

Huck has a hard time excepting the religion the widow tries to convince him off. He finds it hypocritical that the religious people are enforcing slavery and they are living a comfortable life. The widow is trying to make Huck pray and Huck is wondering if he is even spiritual enough to pray. Huck is convinced that religion is not for him because he doesn't agree with slavery and he thinks he is not spiritual enough. He also thinks that praying is only good for the rich and that no proper people like him can pray.
