Damn, several scenes, I was shocked and moved to tears when I watched it directly.
I'm sure it wasn't because I was too easily moved.
I finally believe that real debate and really great debaters are what make you cry.

who is the judge?
the judge is god.
and why is he god?
because he decides who wins or loses, not my opponent.
and who is your opponent?
he does not exist.
why he does not exist ?
because he is a mere a dissenting voice to the truce that i speak . It is highly recommended

to let little james play . great.

    Although you don't need to watch it to know the ending, this American inspirational film is still very moving.
