man's responsibility, Reivew on North & South

One of the most touching scenes is that Thornton fell asleep on the table tiredly, and his mother covered him with clothes. Thornton takes his job seriously and hands-on, and his factory feeds dozens of families. Thornton's refusal to do speculative business, although it's good for him, can take into account that it's risking a worker's livelihood, which makes me think he's doing what a man should do. In the same way, the discipline of the factory is strictly enforced, and even the methods are a bit rude. I think it is forgivable, because as a leader who can see the danger farther than others, his responsibility is to ensure the safety of everyone. Life safety, livelihood safety. In an era when there was no perfect work system, his method of solving problems was understandable. At least he fulfilled his responsibilities instead of choosing to be a villain who was kind to everyone, had a good reputation and was dangerous to everyone. In this regard, the woman who married him would not be wronged. Although we may not have the opportunity to take care of a group of people in our lives, we can protect our family and fulfill our responsibility as men, just like the worker Nicholas in the film. If you have an opportunity to take on a bigger role, don't hold back. At the end of the day, it's what a man should do to try his best to accomplish the tasks that society has given us, not just to your significant other.
