An Inspector Calls: Difference between revisions

{{tropelist}}

* [[Adults Are Useless]]: Mr and Mrs Birling could be kindly described as idiots. Only the younger generation realise the significance of the Inspector's message and try to be nicer people because of it. Eric also says he didn't ask for his father's help after {{spoiler|he got "Daisy Renton" pregnant}} on the grounds that "You're not the kind of father a chap could go to when he's in trouble, that's why."

* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]]: Mr Birling seems more concerned with the loss of his money- a small amount to him compared to his total wealth- than with Eric impregnating Eva Smith or her death.

* {{spoiler|[[Angel Unaware]]}}: It is often suggested that the inspector is not what he appears...

* [[Badass Longcoat]]: The Inspector.

* [[Blatant Lies]]:

* ( [[Breaking the Fourth Wall]]: Close to the end the Inspector has a big dramatic speech warning about the First World War (and possible Hell, depending on how your English teacher wants you to interpret it) directed at the audience as well as the Birlings.

* [[Calling the Old Man Out]]: Sheila does this a bit, but it's mainly Eric (see the [[Adults Are Useless]] entry above).
