Review 6 Remember the Titans



When I was a high school student, I watched the movie during the class for the first time. I
 remember clearly that students watched the movie without talking entirely. This movie made us absorbed. I was very impressed, and I like this movie since that time.

This movie was based on a true story. At the Virginia in the US in 1971, Racial discrimination still remained firmly then. Herman Boone who is a black people comes to a T. C. Williams high school as a head coach of a football team. He was employed as an assistant of Bill Yoast of a white people head coach at first. However, Boone became a head coach by an affirmative action way. They didn't like that.

Players were quarreling every day, too. One day, Boone lodged together in Gettysburg. This place is a decisive battle place by the Civil War. Then, they understand each other through football.

I watched the situation in which they united, and was quite moved. They were bound by rigid ties, and they became the friends. Not only players but also Boone and Yoast became friendly. When I watched at this scene, I was relieved.

I think there is a wise remark for this movie. The wise remark is "There is a racial problem with us. However, therefore it is strong. Nothing can tear up us."

"Titans" of the title is the name of the team of the football, and "Titan" is a giant group of the Greek myth. Boone said, "Titan is stronger than God". They're strong like the name.
Also, You should look at the scene of the game of the football. The football may be unfamiliar for  Japanese, but the game is powerful, so you will be excited to see that.
Especially, in the last game.

 I think there were no racial walls, but people judged a person by the appearance and discriminated. It was very sad. You may be him or her and a friend. This isn't to limit to black people and white people. If your friend isn't Japanese, do you discriminate? I don't  want you to be so.
  
Discrimination against blacks also decreases at present. Rather they play an active part very much. For example, Obama who is a black became the President. Even if races are different, we are same.
