Six Feet Under: An Open Book. Thesis Blog.

During my break I was basically trying to find the rest of the screen writes that I wanted to to read. But I also read through one more script from Six Feet Under. The script was about the funeral of a pornstar from the eighties. In the stories, of Six Feet Under, the dead people talk to the main characters. One thing that I saw come up a lot is conversations concerning one of the fisher siblings' sexuality. The younger brother, out of the three children, David, is gay and has yet to tell his family. And the spirits of the dead people often act as the devil and angel on David's shoulder as well as the other main characters, such as Rico or Nate. Through out the screen write David gets very uncomfortable around Nate and Rico concerning the dead pornstar, because he feels guilty for his decision on not liking women.

My american author choice, Alan Ball, is openly gay and he often puts gay characters or gay issues into his screen writes. I think discussing how he is able to put himself and his thoughts into his work would be an interesting topic to use in my paper.
