Portrayal of Evil
In class, we watched the romantic comedy of "Bringing Up Baby". Although countless examples of thoughtless in terms of Katharine Hepburn's character could be identified, would Arendt constitute "Susan's" thoughtlessness as evil? I believe this not to be true. Susan in the film was acting out of her love for Dr. Huxley. She was not acting out of malicious or evil intent. In fact, her thoughtless actions had a purpose or intent of love behind it which displays actually displays her thoughtfulness. In total, this comedy was a great example of how we can identify the differences between thoughtfulness in actions and complete thoughtlessness.
