Atlas Shrugged Part 1: Dagny Taggart

Drawing on Taylor Schilling’s portrayal of Dagny Taggart in the movie Atlas Shrugged Part 1 and on Ayn Rand’s novel on which the film is based, William R Thomas discusses Dagny’s background, values, and approach to life. Independent thinking, love of business and technology, and a dedication to personal values are major themes in Dagny’s life. Learn more about this fascinating, heroic character with an inner life the movie could not fully show.
