Terry seeks revenge
1)Father Barry challenges Terry to be truly brave and to use the truth against Johnny Friendly. During this confrontation he both punches Terry in the face and, at the conclusion of their conversation, orders a beer. How is Father Barry being portrayed in this scene and why?
Father Barry is portrayed by Terry because he says “go to hell” Which is quite offence towards father Barry especially due to the fact that he is part of the church. Father Barry is just trying to help out Terry so that he does not make the wrong decision, telling him rather than killing Johnny sort it out in court. Terry is abusing Father Barry’s beliefs and isn’t being very considerate to the fact that he is trying to do the right thing.
