Well written Celeste! I have not yet seen it but I have heard from other people the theme of team spirit, comradery, support and willingness to work towards a "win-win goal"! Perhaps some of our younger population feel they know what to do for a "win" but perhaps not a "win-win". This movie might be insightful for them! My husband and I will be making a date to see this movie.
POSTSCRIPT: This morning over Sunday morning breakfast at my house, I got to thinking about the movie again, deciding to look up the Los Angeles Times review of "The Boys in the Boat": (Eddie Pells, 12-26-2023). I was flabbergasted. Barely a mention of the book upon which it is based. Nor Joe's personal hardships. Nor the sport itself. What a lot of hooey!
Thanks for the recommendation! Sounds like a good movie worth seeing with my daughter. They are so few and far between these days.
