Many thoughts ran through my mind as I was watching this tragedy. But I kept hearing JFK's Berlin speech over in my head as I witness the tragedy of North Korea from this movie. "Freedom has many difficulties and democracy is not perfect, but we have never had to put a wall up to keep our people in, to prevent them from leaving us. "What is true of this city is true of Germany (Korea)--real, lasting peace in Europe (Korea) can never be assured as long as one German (Korean) out of four is denied the elementary right of free people, and that is to make a free choice." JFK, 1963
