We still need to believe

Rating: Null/10 (24 February 2004)

This was a fantastic movie that depicted a time when most Americans felt surrounded by a certain "cloud of doom" ...which really is no different than today..which made me sad to realize there can be no such thing as a "dream team" now...the $$$$ signs have replaced those who played for the "love of the game" ...and very few young people today know what it is like to stretch yourself like those players did to win it all. It was nice to see a movie which made us believe we could have it all...despite enemy tactics..and YES those Olympics were much MORE than a game....they were the heart and soul of many Americans in many ways...a heart and soul raped and abused by the betrayal of Nixon and the Watergate fiasco...in many ways the hearts of those kids on that team revealed the heart of our Nation..this movie did a great job of showing us that.
