AN INSPIRATIONAL MUST WATCH DOCUMENTARY!
Dec 2 2011
By William Edwards
- Published on Amazon.com
THIS FILM IS A COMING-OF-AGE MUST SEE FOR ANYONE INVOLVED IN ANY TYPE OF SPORTING COMPETITION. IT IS SO WELL DONE, HOLLYWOOD COULDN'T HAVE WRITTEN A BETTER SCRIPT. ALTHOUGH NO PROFESSIONAL ACTORS ARE INVOLVED, THE CAST OF CHARACTERS ARE TRULY INSPIRATIONAL. IT EVOLVES FROM THE FIERCE RIVALRY OF TWO OPPOSING HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL TEAMS WHO ARE SOCIALLY AND ECONOMICALLY SEPARATED EXCEPT WHEN THEY MEET ON THE GRIDIRON INTO A PERSONAL STORY OF INDIVIDUALS WHO WILL NOT ACCEPT DEFEAT AND WHO HAVE MATURED SO MUCH BECAUSE OF THIS FIERCE COMPETITION. ONE CANNOT HELP BUT TAKE SIDES FROM THE BEGINNING AND I WAS SO HOPING THAT THE LESS FORTUNATE WOULD PREVAIL. I WILL NOT TELL YOU THE OUTCOME BUT I WILL LET YOU KNOW I WAS AMAZED THAT BY THE END OF THE FILM I REALIZED THERE WERE NO GOOD 0R BAD GUYS IN THIS ONE, THEY WERE ALL WINNERS. THE LEVEL OF THE COMPETITION ALONG WITH A TRULY PERSONAL NARRATIVE HAS MADE THIS MY FAVORITE SPORTS MOVIE.

Haves versus The Have Nots

This film is a wonderful documentary using high school football as the backdrop for a showdown between blue collar student athletes versus white collar student athletes while highlighting societal pressures on both. This is "reality TV" as we peek in on 15 to 18 year-olds struggling with high school and dreaming about their futures. Which of the rival towns are you rooting for...in the end, it may be both.

Gift for a coach

We bought this for our son-in-law who is a new football coach. We had previously watched this and were impressed with the coaching -- definitely two different techniques. I believe one was much better. It's the story of two teams in two different parts of Maine meeting on the football field. We were impressed enough to buy it as a gift.
