Czyli tak jak w "dobrym" amerykanskim filmie: Good Guy i Bad Guy , czy tak?
A ja sadze, ze istnieje takze tzw "Grey Zone". I Kurt nie byl taki bastard jak
go tu wymalowano i John nie byl taki do konca swiety. Mnie nigdy do konca sie
nie podobalo jak potraktowal swoja zone i malego Julianka, ktorego dlugo musial
pocieszac Paul (Hey Jude).
