Hello! I found this movie really fascinating and moving. This one man who (number 8) who wanted to talk about his doubts even though others were sure the boy was guilty must have had a lot of courage. It is very hard to stay by your statement when everyone thinks otherwise. It was amazing that he (a man number 8) didn’t lose his temper even once when others without listening to him were trying to convince him that he was wrong. To be honest I was shocked when a man number 3 attacked a man number 8 and shouted “I will kill you!” just because they had different points of view. I must say that it’s incredible that doubts of one man saved this boy’s life.
I am similar to the man number 8 even though I can’t be so calm and patient. I’m not afraid to share my opinion even when my friends or just other people think otherwise. If I have doubts I ask because I want to understand why they think so. In the past I was pretending that I agree with beliefs of majority but I changed my mind and now I prefer to share my real opinion with others.
