be gained, using his logic, from revisiting something that occurred 7 decades ago while the "depravity" of prostitution, drugs, and violent crime occurring now, among the poor in the richest society known to man, rages on?
You and he may think the poor are less than human, that they all are criminal, low-life folks with nothing of interest to "normal Americans." This, of course, is what you've been fed by a media that only concerns itself with stereotypes, with crime among the poor.
Stories like this--- and I haven't seen it but am going on the contents of several reviews-- show that there are people that survive these dangerous situations with their humanity intact. That the suffering don't deserve their fate. I can see where someone who hates government assistance to the poor would hate this kind of movie. They've been convinced long ago that these people are "animals." Seeing their ugly thoughts so forcefully contradicted is an image in the mirror they'd just as soon forgo.
