Things got out of control in Act II ... Nora was going to ask a favor of Dr.Rank , but she changed her mind when Dr.Rank basically confessed his love for her .Do you think Nora would leave Helmer for Dr.Rank ?. Anyways , Nora didn't want to lead him on. She thinks that if she asked him for money to pay off her debt he would probably think he has a chance with her ... I was blown away when I found out that Dr.Rank has feelings for Nora ,I was not expecting that since Dr.Rank and Helmer are best friends . Dr.Rank tells Nora " The sands are running out for me "(Ibsen 191) meaning he'll die soon , and when that happens he does not want Helmer to be around . He tells nora that he thinks " Helmer's too sensitive to be able to face anything ugly " (Ibsen 1910). I think Helmer has a dark side. What do you think ? When he finds out that Nora borrowed money from krogstad and committed a crime he will turn into a totally different person.
Mr.Linde plans to help Nora with her situation . She goes to speak with Krogstad, but when she gets there Krogstad is gone. She leaves a note telling him to meet her so they can talk ... Meanwhile Nora does anything in her power to keep Helmer distracted.She pretends to forget the whole tarantella dance.So Helmer has to teach her the dance again .What do you think will happen ?I think Nora's actions are intolerable.She needs to come clean and just tell the truth ! the whole truth about everything.I think if Nora tells Helmer the truth a miracle might happen.What if this forgery drama end up being a good thing ? I can't wait to find out .But i also think when the truth comes out Noras life will be a tumultuous disaster. I also found out in Act II that nora has come to a decision ....she wants to commit suicide. I do not agree with Noras decision. I think she can redeem herself by telling the truth and take fully responsibility for her actions. But in a way Nora is going through a lot. she's freaking out , everything that is going on is just crazy .Crazy thoughts would probably go through my mind , but not suicide. If i was nora i would come clean and pay the consequences . what would you do ?

I read your post and I thought I was really good. I totally support on what you said. I wonder what will happen in Act three.
ReplyDeleteI think Helmer will get mad at Nora for spending money on that trip. Also, Nora isn't going to be able to distract Helmer any longer. Your doing a good job on your blogs.
ReplyDeleteNora should come out and tell the truth because if she loves her husband then telling the truth shouldn't be a problem.
ReplyDeleteact 2 was crazy! so hopefully act 3 will be better. but nora was smart not to ask for that favor because Dr.Rank is going to die soon :(
ReplyDeletei think Nora should just tell the truth because the way her life is going but i think Helmer should pay her more attention because somebody else could
