To Save a Life


Anyone ever heard of this movie? I rented and watched it tonight, probably a new favorite of mine.

It's about a boy, Roger, with no friends who walks into a school, fires a gun, and then takes his own life. All while this is happening, his former friend, Jake, sees him doing this. He tries to stop it but the boy pulls the trigger anyway. Jake believes this is his fault because Roger was not happy with his life. At the start of their freshman year, Roger and Jake were best friends. But slowly as the year progressed, Roger ends up with no friends, people making fun of him, and no body to be his friend, not even Jake.

Jake feels bad because he believes it is his fault that Roger took his own life. Because whenever Roger was bullied, Jake watched, and let him take it. Roger didn't think anyone was there for him, so he decided to end everything.

Watch the movie to find out what Jake does to turn his life around and make the world a better place. I'll give you all a hint.

Jesus.
