“Salesman” was a different side of the coin you do not
usually think to wonder about. Nobody really likes those annoying people that
knock at your door wanting you to buy something and even if you told them a
thousand times you don’t want it they still keep insisting. I mean the film did
not really change that for me at least. However, it made me see the salespeople
as people and not as menaces to society in a way. I could see these guys
wanting to have more for their families and they just provide to that desire to
help them. It’s like they placed in a situation where the have no choice but to
tell people they have to buy bibles. Even if sometimes these people are in
worse condition then they are, it is a situation of survival of the fittest.
There is no excuse to something like this, but I learned to see the salesmen in
a dire and desperate state. Neither side can provide properly for their
families. It was very interesting to see all this come to play through the sale
of Bibles even. I was not expecting that when I first watched it. It is a film
that can definitely makes us all think of a time when we were guilty of judging
someone because of who they were or what they did or did not do. These guys
aren’t doing things the right way but they are doing those things for causes
sometimes that are noble in nature. Some may not do it for such reasons, but
there are some that do.
