Ideals

Like everyone else that is the class, I hope for a change in our ways as a society. We have discussed numerous things regarding institutions of groups and the government that we would love to see be altered to strengthen the Common Good. We can pinpoint examples of where we have been lied to or practices that are greatly immoral, but how about we make it into a form that people will truly enjoy. A movie.  In the article presented above, it provides a brief review of the movie, “Crossroads,” a movie that stresses the importance of ideology in how we can possibly bring about change.  This sort of manifestation of such a vital message is a route that is surely capable of catching the attention of large groups of people. The strategic planning of this production really did it’s homework to provide information and depict issues that ought to be addressed by the people. Perhaps more importantly, the film closes by giving information on just how easy it could be to bring a noticeable change into our society, and essentially brings up the truth in that it doesn’t exactly take everyone. Although it is important to stress that we should all at least desire to live in a better world, if we cooperate and work as a cohesive group, we can achieve quite a bit. “Crossroads,” although I have yet to view it, seems to take an excellent approach as it doesn’t necessarily give a step-by-step schedule, but as it addresses ideals; something that we must all make clear before we put any plan in motion.
