remember the titans

"remember the titans" was being shown recently in local television and like a moth to a flame, i could not not watch it again. i think i've seen this movie more than 15x already and everytime it was shown on cable back home, i always see it. its one of the great movies that i almost failed to see. the movie was so touching that i always get teary eyed seeing it. its also made up of a huge cast, some of which were not that big of a star back then - kate bosworth, donald faison, kip pardue and ryan gosling (the notebook). denzel washington as always delivers an outstanding performance of a black coach trying to fit in and make a difference. it was a first time blacks & white people were in the same team and during the period in which the movie was set, racism was very much prevalent. there's just something about watching a movie with a good ending that gives you something positive to reflect on. you get good vibes and a positive aura, and that can get you through the day.
