The film basically restores "The Apology" and "Crito". In the second half of the play, the scene where Socrates and Leto debate is an abridged version of the original text, basically covering the important ideas of the self-debate. I. Refuting the charge of "corrupting the minds of young people" II. Refute the charge of "atheist" and the views on "he is the wisest" and death. However, after the death sentence, the conversations with his friend Cleto, who had helped him escape from prison, were greatly reduced. But by the end of the film, more emphasis should be placed on the atmosphere before Socrates' death rather than destroying the tragic atmosphere with high-sounding rhetoric.[Collapse]
