    Leslie Edwards Character Analysis

    Leslie Edwards (Matthew Perry), a clumsy aristocrat, and the hilarious Bartholomew Hunt (Chris Farley) are competing against the famous Lewis & Clark to be the first to chart and make it across the United States to the Pacific Ocean. In the beginning of the film, Edwards has high hopes to head the first expedition to make it across the U.S., but while he has the want and the money, he is a sheltered man who knows nothing of the wilderness. To aid in his journey, he hires the services of a supposedly knowledgeable wilderness-man and tracker, Hunt, who, once they get underway, turns out to be less than advertised (too good to be true haha). Aided by a crew of various rugged frontiersmen, they are also joined by their group's version of Sacagawea, a young Indian woman by the name Shaquinna (incredible), who plays a big part in helping them find their way across the dangerous and unknown land ahead, as well as, eventually becoming Edwards' love interest.…

Lastly, Dr. Brown appears to be a very strong protagonist of education because he works very hard to be educated and he eventually becomes a Professor.…

This is not accepted in any form during this day and age. I am a Negro and Master Hawkins is obviously a white male, making him superior to me. I have set myself up for no good, having made such a rash and stupid decision. It is simply that the thought of Rufus and I together makes me utterly sick. I could never imagine being acquaintances with him, much less having a child with him! The good Lord wouldn’t want me to lose something as precious as my virginity to a man whom I am not married to. The Lord, my body, and my family are the only things I still have to myself in…
