A Movie Based On True Story That Inspires Me...

   Remember The Titans is a story about a football team, The Titans that having a new coach. A white football coach before replaced by a black coach, Herman Boone. It cause white player and their parents not satisfied about it. During the training white and black player do not mix and hostile to each other.

    In a training camp, the coach fix the relationship between black and white player. He made them sit together in the bus and even having roommates of different race. The players slowly understand and accept each other. After the camp, they are united and shared same goal that is to win the championship.

      Nearing the championship games, one of the white player, Gerry gets into an incident cause him paralyze. This hurts the team badly because he is their captain, but incident did not broken their spirit. They go to the championship game and becoming the champion. 

     A few years later, Gerry was killed by a drunk driver. The Titans gather together at the funeral session for Gerry. The most touching part when they sing together the "Kiss Him Goodbye". This scene make me cry because of their strong friendship.

    Na na na na na na na na, hey hey, goodbye
    He'll never love you, the way i love you
    'Cause if he did, no no, he wouldn't make you cry
    He might be thrillin' baby but a-my love (my love, my love)
    So dog-gone willin'So kiss him (I wanna see you kiss him)
    Go on and kiss him goodbye....

       This story taught me that I can't judge people based on their appearance. When the black coach replace the before coach, the white players and their parents get pessimistic to him. Actually he is a good coach because not only coach them football to win the championship, but also make them being respect to each other without thinking about their skin colour. 

    Besides, the most exciting part I remember, when a player dumped his girlfriend because she refused to shake hands with his black friend. This show how a friendship is important and anything else. In addition, it show that everyone should be treated equally, doesn't matter that you are black or white, rich or poor.

      In order to win any games cooperation is the most important, we should work together. It's about team, it's not about individuals. At first the team member do not play well, but after they get along, siting together and sharing the same jokes they can play well. The contribution of each team member are important for the team to succeed. 

       Last but not least, winning is fun. For me The Titans has win when they can get along each other. They even can be a best friends and close each other. They can broke the gap between the whites and blacks.

I'm a winner. I'm going to win. - Coach Boone

      These words really effect my life. It shows how important for us to believe in ourself. However, ambition is only the first step. The second step is action.

       Watching Remember The Titans is not a waste. It is not only amuse me but also give me the moral values of live.  So, everyone should watch this movie.
