“A Passage to India”

     Prejudice is defined in the Webster’s Dictionary as an irrational attitude of hostility directed against an individual, a group, a race, or their supposed characteristics.  Many factors influence one’s prejudice towards another group or race.  Some people are brought up being taught not to like a certain group of people; others begin to be prejudice because of a conflict that may have occurred involving another race.  In the film, “A Passage to India,” based on a novel by E.M. Forster, an Indian doctor named Dr. Aziz changes his views of the Europeans due to a conflict that occurred involving Ms. Quested, a European lady.
     In the beginning of the film, Dr. Aziz is very polite and generous to the Europeans.  He constantly bends over backwards to accommodate Mr. Fielding, Mrs. Moore, and Ms. Quested.

He got all of his friends to help out to make sure that everything was perfect.  Everyone was to meet at the train on the day of the picnic.  When the train was ready to depart everyone was there except Mr. Fielding.  Just as the train was leaving Mr. Fielding arrived, but was unable to board the train.  Aziz got somewhat upset, knowing that this situation, he and two English women, did not look that good.
     They got to the caves and toured in the lower areas.  Mrs. Moore got very hot and tired, and she suggested that Dr. Aziz and Ms. Quested continue up the mountain without her.  Dr. Aziz was somewhat skeptical, but Mrs. Moore insisted that they go.  Dr. Aziz, Ms. Quested, and the guide traveled up the mountain, leaving Mrs. Moore behind with the village natives.
