Basketball's Remember the Titans

Rating: 10/10 (6 January 2006)

I saw the film previewed tonight at the NCAA convention in Indianapolis. Josh Lucas acting is excellent and the portrayal is on target of the team that changed college basketball by breaking the color barrier. These guys were great and the film depicts them accurately. Coach Haskins is a hero. The acting is first class and believable.
Several real players and the Asst. Choach from the 1966 team were at the preview tonight for a Q & A session following the film. They found the film to be mostly accurate with only a little Hollywood touch.
This is one to see. Take the kids to have them learn what discipline and hard work can overcome.
I thoroughly enjoyed this film. Jerry Bruckheimer has another WINNER! Great work.
