Imagine living somewhere surrounded by violence and ruled by a harsh government forcing one to have no freedom. In Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury, the government uses aggressive technology to track citizens’ every move and ensure that they do not have any books. On the other hand, the characters in the society of I am Legend are abandoned by the government with many vicious, diseased mutations causing many normal humans to get infected or killed. Dr. Robert Neville stays behind to find a cure for the man made disease in hopes that it would revive the human race, but suffers through the process. In a world of isolation and cruelty, the main characters of both the novel and movie struggle to understand the government’s actions.
