SO question then, he kills his brother and then what? Would he not go back to jail.

From my recent viewing of When you see us on Netflix (disturbing but brilliant), when someone is released from prison, a felon, they deal with the inability to find work, loss of youth, lack of support, - basically very little hope of living a better life. So I would think there would be so many things to deal with at that point.

Did he know his twin brother? What sort of person is he? Did he continue to commit crimes? The fact that protagonist was convicted means that the twin either didn't know or is very slippery. How does an ex-con track someone down.

I've heard about the twin theory before but the first time the person didn't know he had a twin as they were adopted out. Did these twins grow up together and one betrayed the other? What has he been doing for 26 years in jail - did he not appeal? If he knew there was a twin involved, would that not have been a question for the police, jury etc.

 

I have too many questions about knowing about each other, one got convicted and the innocence of the other wasn't raised.....

Thanks. This is very helpful. Revenge is to kill his brother.

Great idea for a compelling story with what can be an interesting journey for the main character, but...

 

  1. A story like this should be a biography, but it is passable as drama.
  2. What could you do to make the forgiveness part a little more interesting??It feels like if the protagonist decides to forgive his twin, the movie would end there. There should be more struggle and some surprise involved.
