Tartuffe the ignorant

It seems as though this play could very easily be set in a modern film. It's story seems banal for our time, a plot that has been done many times before and is ultimately predictable. This said, I did very much enjoy this play and the characters contained within. The stupidity of Orgon was almost too frustrating. It is very much how I feel about people with blind religious beliefs who, to me, seem incredibly ignorant despite the facts right in front of their face. I wanted so desperately to reach within these pages and shake Orgon out of his spell. In the end all was well and for this I was not to pleased. I felt that for all his stupidity, Orgon deserved to lose everything.
