ITW

Inherit the Wind had a very disappointing ending. The first two acts were fast paced and interesting but the end seemed anticlimactic. All of a sudden the judge said that Cates was guilty and fined him 100 dollars. The town went crazy, some happy, some sad, and some indifferent. Brady was so angry that he died. That seemed rather lame to me. Nobody would actually die because some of the town didn’t like him. I thought that that was simply bad storytelling. The best part about it was when Hornbeck was making fun of him. Brady was an idiot throughout but his death was unnecessary. The beginning of the book was well written but the end was not up to its standards that it set at the beginning.
