the jury is the 'mob mentality' that seems to negate the possiblity of emotion on a personal level.
the drifter is a free spirit, and though he has done wrong, he's a good man. the judge can empathise, and therefore is troubled even though he knows he himself has done the right thing.
the jury (mob) are comprimising the beauty of what is an upsetting but beautiful moment. all references to mobs (the jury, crowd outside) are negative, while all the personal references are emotive and sensitive.
i guess i think its about the power of the individual, and the fact that crowds can create pressure and subvert that power... but when everyone else is following the crowd (bending down to prey) the individual can rise above it and come out the victor!
