The social aspect was also presented many times throughout the movie. An example would be when both races had to get to know each other. They didn’t trust each other at first, but with communication, they began to. Trust, respect, patience and tolerance are four keys to building a healthy relationship.. Two characters examples from this movie would be Gary and Julius. Their trust, respect, patience, and tolerance for each other changed a lot.
