      Glory Road--Fight For Glory And Equality

      "The championship is in their hands, and they won't give it to us easily, so we have to do our best to grab, grab, grab the championship." The coach is great; he knows the pressure the players bear, and he also knows the children. The motivation and purpose of playing is not that simple. They carry the burden of inequality between blacks and whites, which can be said to be a huge boulder that is about to crush them....

      Dream, struggle, perseverance, the weapon of hanging silk counterattack

      I watched it once a few years ago, and I have watched it several times now.
      I am still enthusiastic. I am not a full basketball fan. When I still understand what basketball CRAZY is, what kind of masculinity to move forward, everything is invincible.

      What impresses me the most is that in several of the clips,
      clip (1) Cager's mother, in the aisle dialogue scene with

      Haskin, Haskin persuaded her that the child with heart disease can not participate in the...

      Inspirational movies born of a sense of the times

      Looking at it now, it seems that it is not so sensitive to black and white athletes. Now NBA, track and field, film and television songs, etc. are all dominated by black people, who stand alone in the sky. Who would have thought of discrimination, but this film should have caused a lot of attention back then. Resonate because of the wonderfulness given by the background of the times.
        The black team composed of coaches seems to be unstoppable from the beginning. The film discusses the...

      "The Path of Glory"

      As a basketball fan, that made me especially like this movie.
      The film recreates this great change in basketball history, which made black players truly appear on the basketball court. This change may not be the most important change but it is memorable enough. Without this change, we would not be able to see Chamberlain, Wilkins, Jordan, KG, KOBE, Wade, Paul...

      never stop the dream

      Maybe it's just an inspirational movie in the eyes of others, but this is a movie based on real events.
      In 1966, black people in the United States were far from being respected by everyone. They were despised, bullied, and alienated as if they had suffered from birth. But everyone has a dream. At that time, it was rare for black players to show their talents on the basketball court. No one was willing or risked to use these black boys who didn’t know the difference between streetball and...

    Movie plot

    Basketball, which has been popular in the United States for many years, has always been the goal pursued by many young Americans. The fiercely scrambled basketball court is also a bloody battlefield for those enthusiastic young people. Don Haskins is one of them. Moreover, he has become a leader in this sport through his own efforts and innate advantages. Whether it is on the court as an athlete or later on the court as a coach, it has...

    Movie quotes

    • Coach Don Haskins: [recruiting] Brother, without a little work I don't think you can get past an old-timer like me.

      Orsten Artis: Get past you... I will go past you, through you, over you, under you, around you. As a matter of fact I will spin you like a top, twist you in a pretzel, eat your lunch, steal your girl and kick your dog at the same time... pshh, get past you.

    • Willie 'Scoops' Cager: They're trying to take our dignity away from us.

      Coach Don Haskins: Your dignity's inside you. Nobody can take something away from you you don't give them.
