A wonderful and tearful story

Rating: 9/10 (13 December 2006)

There's a part of me that could talk about this story far past the 1000 word limit of this comment. If you have any soul at all, this movie will make you cry or bring you to the very verge of tears. It is a moving and emotional masterpiece of a fight to remember loved ones lost.
I was not around when this story took place over 30 years ago. My parents can hardly remember. After watching this movie I feel as if I lived it. I feel as if I was a student at Marshall University and went through everything that happened.
Granted, this movie is like every other sports drama movie you might have seen. If you watch these movies when they come out on the big screen you might not be impressed with this one. The happy ending is short lived when reality takes over.
I have not seen the most recent sports dramas that have come out in the past year. I did not see glory road, gridiron gang, and I have not even seen remember the titans. I saw this one, and it moved me and sucked me in to the point of tears.
I cannot give you many reasons as to why you should go see this movie. Other than it is the other side of these kinds of films. Its not about the fame and fortune, its about heart.
