Is it easy to love? Yes, it is, when you love a person liked by many people. And what if your beloved is out of the beauty standards? What if you need to defend yourself from the mockery of others or hide from their sympathetic views? That is harder.
When Tom met Ellen, he could not imagine how hard it will be in the future. Suddenly, in contrast to his feelings for his beloved, the scales were serious, the opinions of people whom he disliked and, in general, did not greatly respect, were categorically placed.
But the author says best about his play: “I see myself in that Fat Hog”. That is the story of human weakness and enormous challenges many of us face trying to live, defend, and keep something they believe in. And this is all me, good intentions and surprisingly pathetic attempts to save face when it comes to business. Heroism is a difficult thing.”
Will Tom endure the test that brought him love for an extraordinary, "non-standard" woman, or will he "succumb to the simple desire to be liked and fit into the dance of life"?
The viewer will know about this only in the last minutes of the performance.
