Program Participants: David, Constance, Cowboy, Lawyer.
Why should the death penalty be abolished? The data proves that the death penalty cannot reduce the crime rate. For developed countries, it is a sign of social stagnation. At the same time, if there are wrongful convictions, it will cause irreversible effects.
Some say Constance persuaded Pauline to frame David.
1. After the passion, David bowed his head and felt guilty. It can be seen from Pauline's eyes that her revenge goal was achieved. The director is not a fool, he needs this kind of look.
2. The ripped thong, the blood from the fingers, asked David to bite the teeth marks on his shoulders, indicating that this was Pauline's carefully prepared revenge plan (this is also the evidence of conviction in the play).
3. Please pay attention to the timeline, Constance only knew about it the next day, and it was the televised debate with the governor immediately. She didn't have the energy to do so, and the televised debate was the point.
4. If an idealist and struggler who is committed to abolishing the death penalty and saving others, uses such despicable means to destroy a family member, let alone her close friend, do you think it is possible?
Why did David have to die?
1. Constance has blood cancer, time is short, and the abolition of the death penalty is far away.
2. Constance was on the phone with Sinclair in Washington, saying that David was a rapist. There are too many stains, and he told Constance not to let David get involved. As a result, he was heard by David. After his wife and son left , this is the biggest hit.
3. The fundamental reason is that the family is destroyed . Why is it destroyed? Because of being framed by Pauline, David tried to explain, but no one believed him, and he was deeply distressed.
4. David didn't devote himself to the death penalty campaign at first. He just wanted to show that he was smarter than the people in power, and he never even sent a fundraising letter by himself (38 minutes and 30 seconds).
Interlude: The governor asked David during the debate, are there any wrongful convictions in the 130 death sentences? I took notes and delayed the trial immediately. David didn't say a word, which is also the director's highlight.
It was only after he was framed and convicted that he realized that, damn, why can't you and your prosecutors find out about my unjust, false and wrongly convicted case.
David Gore's life was a tragic turning point from being falsely accused. David had already died once, so he understood the meaning of being exempted from the death penalty.
About the final postcard: it was sent by Pauline , sent from San Francisco to the Texas prison, (39min 30sec clip) Pauline leaves the place , making David look more guilty, David's His wife couldn't wait for him at the airport until she read the news.
The real pain point: David was touched by Constance, suffering from blood cancer and still fighting for his ideals, David is asking himself, my pain has been caused, shouldn't I do something?
Pauline made a mistake in framing David, and it was David who put an end to that mistake.
Suffering from pain, surpassing pain, this is why a healthy person, a person with a high degree of education, would die calmly.
Other details and highlights in the movie, this article will not go into details, I hope to solve your confusion, or to understand the meaning behind the movie better, this is the reason why I love movies, I give 4 and a half stars to this kind of movie, and also Half a star to the critics.
