New video clips to give you further insight into the play, the story behind it and the characters within it. I hope these help to freshen up your revision.

All My Sons (Notes Continued)


 * George arrives to the neighbourhood, determined not to make friends with anyone in the Keller family.
 * Kate is lovely to him, acts like nothing is different from the past and treats him as she always had done.
 * George can’t help but like her once more and, again, feel part of the family.
 * Just like the neighbourhood community, George warms to the Kellers once more; he becomes part of the lies.
 * He is still cold towards Joe because of what he has done to his father.
 * George arrives with the intention of splitting Annie (his sister) and Chris up. This is because of what Joe’s done – he’s ruined the Deever family’s lives.
 * George has flown straight fromNew Yorkwhere he has been visiting his father in jail.
 * Annie has felt too ashamed to speak to her father, she’s appalled by what he’s done and has refused to visit him. The family really has broken down.
 * Having your reputation destroyed when you are respectable person/family is incredibly difficult to recover from.
 * How a person or family is perceived by the community is very important, people want to be liked and looked up to.
