  1. 1. Gerry Conlon and his father Giuseppe Conlon, along with Paul Hill, Carol Richardson, and Paddy Armstrong, as well as the family of Anne Maguire, known as the Guildford Four and Maguire Seven, were wrongly accused of a crime they did not commit. The main character, Gerry, faced numerous challenges during his 15 years of imprisonment, including both physical and mental abuse. The consequences of his mental health persisted even after his case was dismissed.

    2. The perseverance and persistent hope of Gerry and his father, Giuseppe, and above all their lawyer, Gareth Peirce, is truly remarkable. For example, Gareth dedicated 10 years to working on and investigating this case. Even after his father unfairly died in custody, Gerry fought back and became even more determined to prove himself innocent.

    • Thank you for your thorough review on the film, In the Name of the Father. You didn’t need to respond to all the 3 questions, though. Answering one of the 3 questions would be sufficient.
      I also found the film inspiring and interesting, especially when I realized that what I was watching had actually occurred before.

  2. Please kindly answer at least one of the three questions raised in the discussion section of this post.
