Assignment for Oliver Stone's movie Natural Born Killers

Nietzsche offers two models for understanding morality: Good versus Bad; and Evil versus Good. Choose two characters from the movie whose actions and the explanation of their actions could be interpreted according to the first model (Good versus Bad), and two characters whose actions and the explanation of their actions could be interpreted according to the second model (Evil versus Good). In each case, explain your choice. Support your choice with episodes from the movie.

Reading Fromm, we learned to distinguish authentic, true disobedience from false disobedience and to distinguish heteronomous obedience from autonomous obedience. Analyze the movie from Fromm’s perspective.

Choose at least two characters who represent true disobedience and false disobedience and two characters who represent different types of obedience in the movie. Explain and justify your choice by using Fromm’s arguments and episodes from the movie.
