We are talking about the movie remember the titans. Remember the Titans is set in Alexandria, Virginia in 1971 after the United States Supreme Court passed a ruling ending segregation in public schools. A competent, white football coach named Bill Yoast, is removed from the head coaching position of the newly desegregated T.C. Williams High School. Herman Boone, a black man, is offered the coaching position. At first, Boone is reluctant to accept the offer after his own experience of being replaced by a white coach in South Carolina. He finally takes the coaching position when he realizes that the black residents as a symbol of pride and respect that is lacking in their community. Yoast decides to pursue alternate coaching opportunities elsewhere until his players promise to sit out the season unless he coaches. Fearing for the future of his players, Yoast steps on as Boone's assistant coach. Over the course of training practices and the full season, the mixed team of black and white players battle through constant racial issues. They progress in learning to accept and respect each other as well as their abilities on the field. Their team, The Titans, set an example for the town as well as they pursue the state championship and become a team of players who see men for their soul, not color. As the Titans fight for a winning season, tragedy falls on the team when their captain, Gerry Bertier is in a paralyzing car accident. However, the underdogs fight hard and come out on top. It was a very interesting movie and that is pretty much all I have to say about that. Have you all ever heard of the movie The Ringer? Yes also one I would recommend. Favorite action movies would be the Borne Supremacy and that series. Comedy, of course has to be bridesmaids and Pitch Perfect, newly released films. I am also a fan of most Disney Cartoons.
Thank you for caring about my preferences. Hope you enjoyed reading this as much as I will enjoy reading through you alls.
God Bless
