Twilight Zone – Eye of the Beholder

๐Ÿ˜ŠHello๐Ÿ˜˜

For this post I will show you a work I did for my English class.


What can be imperfect or not normal can be pure beauty for others. In the program The Twilight Zone Eye of the Beholder Janet Tyler  who is the protagonist of this episode is undergoing many surgeries to look as everyone in her world. She is a pretty lady who has been on eleven medical treatments ( surgeries) to look “normal“  as everyone says . She is desperate to be able to be accepted by all the people.

The problem is not that she was ugly, but too much pretty for the society in which she lived. The people of that place lived in a "State" governed by a leader. The real problem was that everyone lived with a malformation on the face. Janet did not had that face malformation , so that is why they all think she is not normal. She even has memories of her childhood were  people look away from her , horrified by her appearance.

At the beginning we can see  Janet Tyler  recovering from her eleventh face surgery in the hospital room 307. As of my point of view this program explains in a different and kind of  weird way how we see or how our society is right now . This have racism ,stereotype ,and discrimination on a different levels .

In a way the problems Janet Tyler has we all have seen them or been somehow in cases like this . Now on this new era if you are not equal or do not follow certain things , people treat you bad. With this I mean that if you do not do or act  as the rest of the people they get in charge to even make you feel worthless. I think that no matter how you are we should all be treated fairly , with dignity ,to treat others as we want to be treated , and most important to love one another .
