The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance


In the movie Stewart's character couldn't do much because he had law without power.Wayne's character had power without law.This quote "Power without law is tyranny; Law without power is meaningless" explains the problems that wayne and stewart's characters had.This movie showed how important it is to have a good balance of law and power.We also see examples of why its important everyday.There are many laws that wouldn't be followed by us on a daily basis if there was no power behind it.But in my opinion if one character had to be choosen over the other I would pick Wayne's character because more could be done with his power and authority.
