In this video, Edison was portrayed as a very comical figure that had a passion for inventing. This movie was much better then i thought it would be. It showed how Edison was on the verge of being shut down because he could not invent an invention that would make enough money to pay off his bills. The movie shows Edison’s crew as a very nice and lively group that would do anything for Edison. This movie also showed how hard working Edison was and how persistent he was, aka the “warrior” side of Edison.
The movie itself was exceptionally well and made me laugh several times. I do not think it was completely historically accurate as far as meeting his wife and trying to be a part of his family. According to other readings we have done and what i have seen on Edison, he was a horrible father and husband. This movie seemed to portray his life in a more Hollywood way then what actually happened.
