The symbolism of Gerry Conlon going through the front door as a free man while the corrupt cowards that wrongly persecuted and convicted these innocent people went out the back doors to avoid the disgrace. So powerful!
I Absolutely agree and it's the same with the Birmingham six as the Police knew and still know who the real bombers are in both cases and you will never get justice
Not to make this injustice any less but another terribly harmful thing to him was smoking cigarettes. He might have avoided lung cancer and lived much longer had he quit early enough or not started at all. It was so unnecessary of him to die as young as 60.
+BRAD PITT if your looking for accuary then you wouldn't want to see the treatment those innocent people got while being interegated its mainly rounded off the true events in the prison but that was less than half of the real experience
You dont cry, liar. all you internet kids sound the same. IM LITERALLY CRYING! I HAVE LITERAL CHILLS! I HAVE LITERAL GOOSEBUMPS! Every comment section you all sound like drones
"I'm a free man, I'm going out the front door." The greatest line ever said in movie history (IMHO). Does anyone know if Gerry Conlon actually said that?
He did say it and go out the front door His father told him to when he was proved innocent and the guilty were seen ! After 15 years falsely imprisoned .you'd want to go out that front door .but his father told him to do exactly this It's a symbol of innocence and respect , freedom and the chance to say his story It's very important
@@nobodyowens8159 i don't know. I wasn't there. I do know his speech outside is not what he actually said. I never take anything in a "based on a true story" film without a ton of salt.
I watched this movie when I was 14 in high school. The impact was so strong I remember it now at 32. Amazing portrayals, heartbreaking story and beautiful music.
I cry each time I watch the end of this movie ; a so moving and strong end ! In the name of the father, in the name of the fathers of Irish people who suffered because of the injustice of the British empire for several centuries !!! And still no apology so far !!! RIP Gerry and Giuseppe !
I spent many days watching this scene on loop when I was 19-20. This movie took me to live in Ireland for 2 years. That’s how much influence this movie had on me.
I saw this movie in 1993 and it became my favorite of all times. Everything is just perfect, Daniel Day Lewis, Emma Thompson, Peter Postlethwaite, THE SOUNDTRACK! (Mind-blowing!) and Jim Sheridan's direction. Still my favorite in 2021!
I’ve watched this movie about 40 times and this scene still makes the hairs on the back off my neck stand up . Unbelievable. To think that the scum of the earth English police never got charged for this is bar none the biggest tragedy in British legal history. The injustice is unspeakable. “I’m going out the front door with Gerry”
It certainly has a lot of competition for being the biggest shame of British legal history. Nobody being held accountable for the Grenfell fire comes to mind.
@@peterfraney7931 Yeah - *WRONGFULLY* fvcking acquitted!!!!....

Been watching a lot of 90s films lately. Somehow when the music kicks in after the first verdict is read out, you feel such a sense of joy. This scene is miles ahead of the "Freedom" scene in Braveheart (1995)). Daniel Day Lewis was right as rain as always.
For me one of the most powerful scenes in cinematic history. The performances and the harrowing music of sinead o Connor always moves me on an emotional level.
And Sarah Conlon, who fought for their release, who sent them packages every week in prison, saved up all her vacation time at work to visit them in prison, and wrote them constantly. When the government finally apologized, she said she was alright with dying then, because she could die in peace.
Never forget Carole .she was 17 years when she was tortured and falsely Occused . Gerry said she was never recovered .can you imagine what Carole went through
When DDL rises above the crowd in the courtroom and the bagpipes simultaneously play, it hits you in a way you can’t describe knowing he’s walking out the front door an innocent man 💪
This may be the best ensemble of actors I have ever seen in a film. DDL PP Emma T The Jamaican guy Inspector Dixon The IRA ringleader The 2nd Judge All of them were absolutely outstanding.

Love you Irish from a Bosnian NEVER give up on your identity,history,culture and religion NEVER.Since 14 century we Bosnians have been taken over by so many political or religious countries even today we are lost because some traitors wants to be Serbs,Croats,Turks etc.
They should have been given 15M pounds compensation each and the prosecuting police, prosecuting lawyers and previous judges jailed for 15 years each. This is what justice should have been like.
Watched this at the cinema upon release many years ago. I still watch it several times a year. What amazes me is it's over 2 hours but before you know it's finished. Such a brilliant film!
To have the composer, the "know it all, and the fortitude to demand to go out the front door. When I saw this movie what really shock me is how well Daniel Day Lewis played that character. Well Played, well played.
La vi en video,una amiga me presto esta tremenda pelicula y ni hablar de la cancion q da el toque de nuestra querida sinead ,descansa bella hija de IRLANDA
Yeah, I saw this in the theater when it came out. One of the few times my brother and I went out together The chase through the city was excellent then & still is Always Irish stuff , Clancy Bro And Tommy Makim, ,,Rory Gallagher,,Phil Lynot,,Van Morrison,ect,,ect.Damn we love being Irish
Just saw this movie-magnificent. From the intricate emotional connection between a son and his father, to the chilling display of injustice, I’m caught speechless. Cannot believe the police didn’t have to face legal consequences for such horrid wrongdoings. This is such a bittersweet ending.
Just think, if that security guard did not report for work. The treasonous deception would have gone on. I just wondered how many intelligence resources was wasted covering up this atrocity? How many lives. BTW Love the music choice that the director made.
I had the audacity years ago to say that Daniel Day-Lewis was not a good actor...I was a bit blown away that he won 3 Oscars and Robert De Niro only won 2! BUT in my defence I was about 12 years old and didn't know my arsehole from my elbow! And then... I saw him in Gangs of New York and THIS FILM and Last of the Mohican - NOW whenever I watch him I don't see Daniel Day-Lewis EVER...I just see the character! Some people say method acting is mental but I say it's a wholesome form of absolute dedication to your craft! It means you're taking it seriously! I bet most of you are with me guys when I say that there's nothing worse than when you're seeing a brilliant or tragic story portrayed by an actor who doesn't do it justice! Just imagine for example Gangs of New York WITHOUT Daniel Day-Lewis...nowhere near as good a film is it?!?! That's why I agree that the acting industry SHOULD BE one of the hardest industries to enter because we want the best of the best! Don't we guys?! Daniel Day-Lewis was ROBBED in Gangs of New York!
The tragedy is that English and Irish can never be under the same government not because of language, culture or distance but because an Irishman will never get a fair trial at the hands of an English jury or legal system.

Those cowards are the ones YOU LIVE WITH.
I Absolutely agree and it's the same with the Birmingham six as the Police knew and still know who the real bombers are in both cases and you will never get justice
The sad part is that this wasn't the end for Gerry. He suffered for the rest of his life because of this case. Poor man. Gone too soon.
Yes, he suffered from PTSD and nightmares until his death in 2014. Injustice leaves lasting wounds. Still, a man of formidable strength and spirit.
Not to make this injustice any less but another terribly harmful thing to him was smoking cigarettes. He might have avoided lung cancer and lived much longer had he quit early enough or not started at all. It was so unnecessary of him to die as young as 60.
@@Cybernaut76 Smoking was probably his way to cope. Remember counselling wasn't a thing back then
@@Cybernaut76 I think smoking cigarettes was the last thing on his mind.
SORRY TO HEAR HAVE NOT KEPT UP. TOO AWFUL. HOPE 'WE' WHOEVER 'WE' ARE HAVE LEARNT.
"I'm a free man and I'm going out the front door". Give me goosebumps every time. RIP Gerry and Giuseppe x
this scene always sends chills down my spine
did you ever read 'in the name of the IRA' an article that shows you the lies and inaccuracies in the film
+BRAD PITT if your looking for accuary then you wouldn't want to see the treatment those innocent people got while being interegated its mainly rounded off the true events in the prison but that was less than half of the real experience
Always go out the front door, always.
Same.
Absolutely
Gerry went out the front door a free man , and the police who tormented him went out the back door
in a green shirt :D that became blue
In criminal parlance...This was a ' bloody fit up ' by the police.

The ending song here is excellent!🤔😏🙂
An amazing film, with an ending made perfect by Sinead O’Connor. No one like her, what a loss.

DANIEL DAY LEWIS DID SO HONOR GERRY CONLIN RIP GERRY AND HIS Father
It still is a great film Emma Thompson was just legendary
she's not a dame for nothing 😉
Gareth Pierce is a moral hero, an English hero, a good human. What a woman! From an Irishman.
Hell of a performance by Daniel Day Lewis and Pete Posletwaite

Kalentros apparently he did yes
yes jerry was a advisor on the film
yes he did...in his book proved innocent. its says at the start of the book.
He did say it and go out the front door
His father told him to when he was proved innocent and the guilty were seen !

Never forget Carole .she was 17 years when she was tortured and falsely
Occused .

When DDL rises above the crowd in the courtroom and the bagpipes simultaneously play, it hits you in a way you can’t describe knowing he’s walking out the front door an innocent man 💪
They are not bagpipes, bagpipes are Scottish. They are uileainn pipes, Irish pipes. Beautiful sound
This may be the best ensemble of actors I have ever seen in a film.
DDL
PP
Emma T
The Jamaican guy
Inspector Dixon
The IRA ringleader
The 2nd Judge
All of them were absolutely outstanding.

love Sinead O'Connors's song..............................stirs my soul especially the fiddles integrated/tracked into the song
Powerful, powerful scene. And very, very emotional. Always brings tears to my eyes. Very powerful, and unforgettable.
Most powerful and motivating scene..hats off to day Lewis
This scene still brings happy tears to my eyes. Nothing beats seeing it for the first time though.
I remembered the first time I watched this movie, this scene had me holding back tears ..
I folded not gonna lie. Made me tear up a lil.
Love you Irish from a Bosnian NEVER give up on your identity,history,culture and religion NEVER.Since 14 century we Bosnians have been taken over by so many political or religious countries even today we are lost because some traitors wants to be Serbs,Croats,Turks etc.
Kenan im irish we love you back too. Good man yourself.
To my Bosnian brother thank you. Freedom is incredibly liberating. We all deserve it. Some of us never get it. But it's always worth fighting for.
And now look at us all, going around like sheep masked up over a little virus.
I’m American and I have your back and the Irish ☘️ much love
Amen brother
powerful scene from a powerful movie!!! great acting ...especially DDL
I remember that day watching it on the news as a kid, I was too young to know what was really happening but my parents were delighted
It's quite impossible to restrain my tears to fall when I see this scene.
I read the book Proved Innocent. This is a really great heart breaking movie.
They should have been given 15M pounds compensation each and the prosecuting police, prosecuting lawyers and previous judges jailed for 15 years each. This is what justice should have been like.
RIP Sinéad O'connor.
Such an underrated film
So love this movie, so do my children and probably future grandkids.... From a kiwi-irish girl.

The only movie ever where i cried
Iconic scene. I remember watching this for the first time I was about 15. I still cry watching this bit.
One of the most stirring endings to any movie I've ever seen. The movie itself along the way was often excruciating, but it is so worth it.
When he raises his hand and says "I will fight all".

The tragedy is that English and Irish can never be under the same government not because of language, culture or distance but because an Irishman will never get a fair trial at the hands of an English jury or legal system.

Lots of Irish People have a hard time getting a Fair Trial in Ireland too.
