One aspect I noticed of the Blues brother was that its plot was symbolic of the impacts that blues had on society. First, Blues was becoming more popular than and was edging out country music, which is mirrored by how the Good Ole Boys were chasing after the Blues Brothers. In addition, the Blues Brothers were able to win over a southern crowd who were fans of country music. Similarly, the Blues Brothers were being pursued by the Nazis. Blues was developed and performed mainly by African American musicians. African American musicians were gaining fame and affluence due to the Blues they performed, and this of course incurred a racist backlash, with many calling Blues “the devil’s music”, which is embodied by the armed Nazis that try to kill the Blues Brothers. A scene that reinforces this was when the Blues Brothers tried to run over the Nazis, causing them to jump off the bridge. It showed how Blues was able to overcome to racist barriers in its way and become very popular.
