    It is false because the film show how Ben Harper died at the begining and how the angry crowd wanted to condenate Harry Powell at the end.
    2. The reverend was sentenced to 30 days in prison because he got caught in a stolen vehicle.
    It´s true.
    3. Children´s mother knows where the money is hidden.
    It´s false,just the kids knew where the money was.

    False,He was a misogynist.

    False, he killed two farmers ,stole their horse and he blamed to some gypsies.
    8. Little John feels good when the police catch the preacher
    False because that remind him when rhe oplice cought his father.
    9. You can see animals along the banks of the river.
    True.
    10 Love and Hate are the words tattooed on the preacher´s knuckles.
    True.
    Our two favourites scene are, when kids are hidden in a barn and Harry passed riding a horse throught the horizon singing his song.
    And when Willa was death in the river among algae with a cut in her neck.

    We like the film because is convencional,alternative and tells a story in a different way that the films used to told in the 50´s.The scenery is dark and sad because it wants to show the bad times in the depression age.Also, the plot trasmitted the anguish of Jonh.
    The fiml reflects the society of that times,it makes a critic with a other perspective
