An Ideal husband
An Ideal Husband
In the story An Ideal husband by Oscar Wilde, there many themes. Some of the themes that are represented by the movie are, rich versus poor. Another is theme is how the rich have much more influence over the poor. The third theme is how the powerful tends to make the life of the weak miserable. Lies often bring unnecessary problems whilst the truth does indeed make everything much simpler, another theme of the movie. However the most intriguing theme, in my personal opinion is the idea of what a husband is supposed to be like, in another word an ideal husband. The play’s title represents Lord Goring and Sir Robert Chiltern in a very delightful manner. The meaning though changes as the play goes on and on. At first one would think the meaning was being able to provide to one’s wife. Then as the scene continues it turns out that being an ideal husband has to do more with being honest and brave.1
At the beginning of the play we see Lord Goring in bed with a women and then she gets up to leave. In my thoughts she was his wife but it turns out that it was a women he had met over night, and that perhaps an ideal husband was one who could satisfy his lady in fashionable manner. Goring is awakened by Mason, the butler of the house, and helped to get ready for the meeting to happen that evening. As time drew closer he began to cloth himself. The first thing noticeable about him was his passion for how he dressed and how much he loved looking at himself. He mentions that the rose in his pocket are what makes him stand out from all the other people in the room and that he shall forever be chivalry. His father the first time introduced to the play asked Goring if he had found a wife yet. Goring did not seemed very fond of the idea of getting married, or maybe he was afraid of the responsibility he would have to carry.
Sir Robert Chiltern on the other hands did not start of well at the dinner party he happened to run into Mrs. Cheveley who
