How has your additional text shaped your understanding about changing self? The film Silver Lining’s Playbook‚ directed by David O’Russell presents many ideas about changing self.

Through this essay I will make clear Arthur Millers true opinion on women evident via events‚ characters‚ setting‚ relationships and dialogue; the much concealed misogyny of Arthur Miller‚ and Death of a Salesman.
