The Hurricane is a 1999 film that rotates about a the life of a black boxer named Rubin Carter also known as The Hurricane and about how a young black boy named Lesra who was fostered by some Canadian people found out his story and helped him to prove his innocence.
The film will teach you great things, like writing as a powerful weapon. I have read once that writing is a great weapon especially to those who are afraid to use their own voice and afraid that their voice isn't loud enough to be heard. In my course, we are highly encouraged to write whenever we are having trouble handling our current situation or emotions, so I personally think that writing is a great weapon in terms of coping and expression.
The message that was portrayed in the film is holding on or not giving up for something that you believe right, for standing firm for what your beliefs are. Which is what I strongly , for as long as what I believe in is right and I am not harming others, in any way or aspect.
Lesra's character is a very special one because he was moved by Rube's story, his book took a huge part in terms of impact in his life. A professional will be interested on how involved Lesra feels on Rubin's life. I'll include here the scenario from the film that a psychologist might be interested in, when Lesra questioned his Canadian foster family why they decided to foster him, for what reason, because in the book, it is evident how skeptic Rubin is to white people because the people who put him behind the bars are also white people. Also when Lesra started practice boxing because he read that Rube used his body to protect himself, and Lesra became motivated to do the same.
