If I remember correctly , the butler got the job because of his father who was the butler before him. I would think he left school probably the village school at an early age, went into service worked his way up from the bottom, and was good at his job. His job however did not involve thinking, it just involved being efficient, and remembering everything, which he did.
The most telling part of the film was when he was questioned by one of the guests, in front of all the others. The objective of this questioning was to make him look stupid to prove a point. He was cruely used to show that in the guests opinion that it was a waste of time to ask the opinion of the man in the street, and that democracy had no use. You may compare this to SL.
You may compare me with him, but you have to admit that I can argue my point. And when I adopt this policy of appeasement I can argue it was the right thing to do. The man who was famouse for this policy wasNeville Chamberlian the British Prime Minister.
Actually he was not as stupid as you might think inspite of his Peace in our time speech. He knew what Hitler was, and he used the time gained to build up Britains arms supply which at the time was almost non existant
