  • The film isn't about him being guilty or not, nor is it about making excuses. There is always a reason for behaviour, even if we can't understand it, but the film is asking if allowing a state to murder is resolving any problem. Regardless of your thoughts, such a great movie, and superb performances

  • was he a rapist in this movie??

  • i met that woman today :) shes a great lady

  • This movie should be made accessible on YouTube for everyone's viewing, it is the best movie I have ever seen... just shattering... I was 15 when I saw it in the theatre... I was shaken and terrified...Great piece of American cinema !

  • Yes he did but he wasen't the ring leader.

  • Uh, no. It clearly states in the film he participated in the murders.

  • he was sucked into it. The other guy was the main person in that killing.

  • He was a murderer.
