Movie: Joe the King

a) What are all of the societal factors involved, for each family member?

Response Guidelines
Respond to a fellow learner who either identified a societal factor that you missed, or whose answers to either of the other two questions differed from your own.
a) In the first case, discuss your response: Is that societal factor actually at play? If so, why do you think you missed it? If not, support your explanation with examples from the text or the movie itself.
b) In the second case, discuss the differences: What might be influencing the difference in perception?
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
