[Mr. Silverback]

You are bypassing my point. You said there was no "Hollywood conspiracy" because the screenplay was based on Toole's stories. Well, how does that mean that it isn't Katie's story? You have presented no evidence that it isn't.

It could very well be Katie's story. I haven't read the source fiction. I was only defending the people who made the movie. I would be surprised if they even knew about this person.

As for Freeman's character, not all moral people agree on all things. He may be a moral character who forgives his longtime friend for an immoral act. Or maybe he doesn't think its immoral.

And I'm not dismissing people with a different opinion. The only thing I was responding to was the idea that there was some prior notion by the film makers (and all of Hollyweird of course) to make a film specifically to glorify euthanasia. I love movies and don't like it when people paint with a broad brush.
