A Civil Action

In the movie A Civil Action, John Travolta plays Jan Schlichtmann. This is a great example of someone that finds who is he. At the beginning of the movie, Jan was selfish and mean. When the group of people came to him telling him that their kids have died form Leukemia, he didn't say much to help them. He only wanted cases that he could for surely win. When he finds out a problem in the community though, about the water contamination, he starts to investigate more into it. Now he has to decide if he wants to take the case or not. Later he decides that he could win this and spends a lot of time and energy in the problem. At the end of the movie, i really think this changed Jan because at first all he cared about was making sure he could win and earn a lot of money, towards the end he stuck to working on the case more and helping the people that came to him. He really found out who he was by helping the parents and sticking to the case.
