This question is about "The crucible"
Answer and Explanation:
In the theater play Tituba is threatened to be beaten if she does not confess to being involved in witchcraft, she then confesses to escape the beatings. In the film, however, there is no threat and Tituba is beaten in front of the viewer, who can hear her confess screaming. This difference in approach that the directors of the play and the film decided to make aims to increase and decrease the drama of the scene. This is because watching Tituba's beating in the film promotes a greater and more impactful drama, making the viewer shocked by the physical violence to which blacks were subjected. This same scene in the play, however, has less drama, but it also leaves the viewer shocked by the psychological and emotional control that whites had over blacks.
