Archer knew it when Solomon was arrested by the government army. So Archer tried to approach Solomon and asked Solomon to give him the diamond and Archer promised to help him to find his missing family.
Through the story of Archer, Blood Diamond shows the dark sides and real situation of Africa. It shows the serious problem of children soldier in Africa. The ending of the movies is quite touch as a cold-blooded person Archer chose to forgive the diamond he had found for a long time to protect the one he loved. This film is quite meaningful and thoughtful.
