An Awesome Display of "Good Sportsmanship"!

Rating: Null/10 (7 November 2003)

What a tremendous film! Maybe it's just because I'm a sucker for "True Stories", but this was one of the best films (2nd ONLY to "Pirates of the Caribbean"), I've seen this year. I was so very impressed with Cuba Goodings portrayal of "James Robert Kennedy" wow! Mr. Goodings performance was as good or better than the character "Arnie" in "What's Eating Gilbert Grape"! What an "award winning" performance! This film touched so many emotions: joy, laughter, compassion, anger etc... it truly was in a league of it's own! I was surprised by the ending, not knowing that Mr.Kennedy was still involved in the school's activities. This was a very heartfelt story, which brought me to tears, and am sure there are many who feel the same way. What a truly compassionate man the "Coach" was. This is a Movie for the whole family to see, and I plan on seeing it again. Thanks to everyone involved in bringing this story to the screen! ck
