Dead Man Walking (1988)

Great production, great acting, totally believable. It's a bit bizarre to end making the point that death penalty works though.

The movie Dead Man Walking reveals a perfect example of how just punishment and redemption can work together.Had rapist/murderer Matthew Poncelet not been properly sentenced to death by the civil authority, he would not have met Sister Prejean, he would not have received spiritual instruction, he would not have taken responsibility for his crimes and he would not have reconciled with God.

This is a very very doubtful movie in several sides Humanity,Justice,Credibility & Flexibility of Law,Crime & Punishment,Pardon from the Religion.Each side is too conflicting one to another.
