The Guns of Navarone

Last Saturday I've watched a movie of 1961: The Guns of Navarone. The lesson to be learned it would be "if a group sticks together, then the group wins the battle". However 2 scenes were curious or fascinating.

1st scene: Cpl. Miller to Cap. Mallory, "I've never killed a woman, damn it. Why you do not pull the trigger? Make the difference and show all of us what you are."
Capt. Mallory points his gun to Anna and suddenly it is Maria who pulls the trigger killing Anna.

1st question: Who is guilty?! Is the guy who have told to pull the trigger or the other one who pulled it?!

2nd scene: Capt. Mallory says to Maj. Franklin who had a broken leg since 2 or 3 days ago, "Tonight at 10 p.m. our troops will come rescue us." He was intending that under torture Maj. Franklin would transmit to he German army such information, in a way to open a secure path until the entrance of the mountain where the guns of Navarone were located.

2nd question: Why the human being is so week in spirit when physically fragile/ill?!

The two questions above are kind of rhetorical questions. All of us at least one time in our life thought about these subjects: guilty and fragility.

Comment from a friend: "There are too much scenes where nobody says anything." Huum I wonder what he would say if we were watching a pornographic movie.
