The movie showed the kind of training schools they were in,
Conrad depiction of the Intended as naïve symbolizes her blind devotion. She appreciates Kurtz presence because he is male and is associated with Kurtz. As a result of this devotion, she turns a blind eye to Kurtz’s participation in colonialism. The Intended “represents a crucial symbol—an idol/ideal of both European civilization and of women’s supposed submissiveness—and therefore any departure of hers from this role is subversive” (Smith 57).
