As a child Chidester describes Jones as a “Dennis the Menace” (p.2) type of person. He reveled in the pranks he would pull on what he considered to hypocritical Christian preachers and enjoyed retelling the stories to his friends. Chidester describes one prank specifically in which Jones took a preachers bible and filled it with cow manure. Jones believed in a practical take on religion but did not think that the churches were living up

This portrays a biased point of view. We are only able to see Jones through the eye of his previous followers, which prompts us to view him as a political power broker, molester and a killer. Wouldn’t you want to defend yourself if people were claiming this about you? The fact that the film relies whole-heartedly on the views of those who were apart of the People’s Temple does not allow for any doubt as to Jones’ ideals. Viewers are not given the opportunity to see him as a saviour, a messiah or a preacher. Instead, all that is imprinted in the audience's brain is his patronizing personality, his sick demeanour and superficial

Are there elements in his early history that may have had an impact on his overall cognitive development?

Elation is probably the most obvious component, and it is often misplaced and without any real reason for being in this mood. Manic episodes bring with them extreme self-confidence and energy to meet people and engage in all sorts of activities and adventures. It is not uncommon to be unable to understand what a person in a manic state is saying because they are talking loud and fast, and can jump from one subject to the next without any provocation or knowing why. Irritability and lack of attention span are also trademarks of this state. In its most extreme, mania can also bring about violence and rage from the individual. During this period the sufferer often enrolls themselves in many activities or responsibilities that they cannot fulfill after the mania subsides, lending to further problems even after the episode has subsided (Encyclopedia Britannica, 23:847).

“The essential feature of a manic episode is a distinct period during which there is an abnormally, persistently elevated, expansive irritable mood and persistently increased activity or energy that is present for most of the day, nearly every day, for a period of at least one week (or any duration if hospitalization is necessary), accompanied by at least three additional symptoms from Criterion B. If the mood is irritable rather than elevated or expansive, at least four criterion B symptoms must be present,” states the American Psychiatric Association’s (APA) Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th edition (DSM-V) when classifying BD. There are

Mrs. Jones is like any woman-she wants to be loved. She felt like she needed to take care of her mother, though, and this could be achieved if she married George. Though he was not her ‘dream man’, he could offer her (and her mother) an arrangement that she would not be able to get otherwise. The fact that the woman married George H. Jones for her mother was very considerate. As the play progressed, the woman began to get more annoyed with her husband each time he spoke. During the scene before the bar scene, I had a slight instinct that some sort of infidelity would happen, and it did. I believe that once Mrs. Jones learned about the stones and the bottle from her young lover, she could not remove the idea from her brain. Though she claims she killed her husband so she could be ‘free’ from him, I am not sure how she had the audacity to murder him in cold blood. During the trial, I felt the young woman would never succumb to admitting she did the deed since she was so routine whenever she was asked if she murdered him. Finally, the straw that broke the camel’s back was when the letter from the young lover was read. To be perfectly honest, I was shocked that he recorded their affair. I also thought to myself, “How could he have done this to

I felt the information displayed in these films was accurate to what I had been led to believe. The bipolar characters in each film exhibited the symptoms that come with the mental disorder appropriately. To prepare for Mr. Jones the director, the writers and Richard Gere spent a good deal of time with people suffering from bipolar disorder, to represent the mental disorder

In return, Mrs. Jones explains to Roger that life is not always fair because she existed in Roger’s spot too, once, and knows how it feels since she still is monetarily fragile. Roger feels irrational and realizes that Mrs. Jones is correct (357 – 359). Above all, the actions of Mrs. Jones Hughes wrote about, which was “When they were finished eating, she got up, and said ‘Now here, take, this ten dollars and buy yourself some blue suede shoes,’” (359), showed how empathetic she acted towards the boy. The boy knew at that moment Mrs. Jones had understood his situation as he could not even compel himself to say “Thank You M’am,” a compensating message for Mrs. Jones’s munificent favor. Being concerned for Roger made him understand her loving, motherly character. Mrs. Jones’s vicarious behavior changed Roger from the boy on the streets to a well-disciplined
