Comparing Joy Batchelor's And John Halas 'Animal Farm'
In Joy Batchelor’s and John Halas’s award nominated production of Animal Farm its based on a farm revolution to overcome the horrible treatment from humans. It begins when Old Major a devoted, wise pig addresses the idea of freedom. To be free of hard labor and not being a slave to human society while getting nothing in return. He brings light to the ideas of being united as a farm and rid of their drunken farmer Mr. Jones. The revolution begins when they chase off Mr. Jones and they need someone to come up with ideas to help support the farm. It's shown that Napoleon and Snowball take charge after Snowball leaves, this gives Napoleon total freedom to make the rules for the farm. Napoleon enforces the building of the windmill, which
is built over many years. A way Napoleon gained more from the farm without the animals realizing it, is by having the animals something to focus on building the windmill. He abuses his power and creates an unfair advantage for the pigs. The animals on the farm see the pigs as the smarter ones and how they can’t make decisions for themselves. In the end, we see how the rule of the humans and the pigs were same. That humans and pigs both abused the animals, both craved power, and wealth that came with controlling everything.
