to father

I felt a little guilty about watching this movie on and off. Why is it guilt, because this is a movie that should be found in a quiet place to enjoy quietly.
This is the first movie I've ever seen Lewis. I've heard that Lewis is so good at acting on my right foot. Today, I'm all seeing the actor's demeanor. He plays Jerry's first rebellion to the next surrender to the last rebellion very well. There are two scenes with a deep image. The first scene is that after his father died, he looked at the burning paper falling outside with a colorless expression. The second scene is when he finally gets his innocence and shouts that I am innocent and pleads for my father, and I see Jerry as a young man again.
