CGiii Comment

The movie 'Johnny' is about a homeless group of young people. They think that they are held together by each other's friends, but in the center of their group is the power of 'Johnny,' the main character who controls them all. He is strong, powerful and - sometimes gentle and loving his followers. At some point, he may encourage them to humiliate themselves, and next time push them to acts of extreme violence against each other, and then do so better, giving a sincere attachment to their members. Johnny is Hitler, Mao, rock star, Charles Manson, and the Messianic martyr. Johnny is the guy who lives with his mother and she so much loves him that she climbs into bed with him.
