1. Being a gangster is a dangerous profession and may be used as a scapegoat at any time.
2. The sons rebelled against their father, but in the end they all came close to becoming fathers.
3. The police station is one of the dirtiest places in the world.
4. Terrorist leaders have angelic charisma, but their ways are so diabolical, like Joe McKendall, they can confuse almost any young man.
5. Violence is the most direct but most ineffective means to solve problems, and it is still widely used.
6. Everyone loves freedom, fairness and justice because they don't exist.
7. We are more likely to be swallowed up by power because it exists in reality.
8. Life is only a short spot of light, and we endure long darkness for it.
9. Daniel Day-Lewis films are worth watching.
10. But I like Joe McKendall.

    how many justice will be done?

  • Filiberto 2022-03-24 09:01:38

    The title of the film is in the name of his father. In prison, Gary regained his confidence in life because of his father. After being pardoned by the queen, the film stopped abruptly, and there was no scene of justice for his father. There is also no pure idealism like "Twelve Angry Men", so I don't think the point of this film is very clear. Leftist comment in one sentence: This is the West you worship! The rightists want to change the title of the film: Fighting! in the name of freedom

  • [after hearing of his father's death]

    Gareth Peirce: [With tears in her eyes] Well, I think they ought to take the word 'compassion' out of the English dictionary.

  • Gerry Conlon: I'll be older than you when I get out of this place. If I get out. Are you listening to me?

    Gerry Conlon: Now who's being childish?

    Giuseppe Conlon: I've not heard a sensible word out of you in two weeks. That stuff will kill you.

    [talking about drugs]

    Gerry Conlon: Sure I'm dead anyway. Look I'm sorry. I'll not take it again as long as you live. Are you happy now?

    Giuseppe Conlon: No.

    Gerry Conlon: Why not?

    Giuseppe Conlon: I don't want you to take it whether I live or die.

    Gerry Conlon: Oh, give me strength. Ok, I'll do nothing to annoy you in your grave. Now are you happy?

    Giuseppe Conlon: Is that a promise?

    Gerry Conlon: Ay, maybe.
