More than inspirational

This is a great movie. Inspirational, teamwork, and race are all its remembered labels. As said in the movie, everyone on the team is not perfect, but when they are together, they are perfect. This is the reason why they won. Similarly, this movie may not be the most inspiring, perhaps not the deepest on racial issues, nor the most gorgeous on friendship or collaboration, but when these are combined, it is far more shocking. +1=2 is that simple.
In fact, for this kind of film that tends to be more inspirational, the team’s success has become a familiar plot, and the difficulties to overcome seem to always be related to teamwork and personal ambitions. However, each movie seems to be different. If in the Glory Road, the twelve people face the entire white group, then in this movie, the players face more of their hearts. Perhaps I have to admit that every member of Titan, from players to coaches, has a great personality. The courage required for blacks and whites to merge and understand each other in an age full of contradictions may not be understood by us, but they did it, although they also encountered many twists and turns. More importantly, they not only use victory to inspire people's fighting spirit, they use their indestructible friendship and unity to influence the ideas of people around them and even a wider range of people. Blacks and whites sometimes disagree, but whenever they want to add hatred to each other, the spirit of the Titans gives them the best guidance. Perhaps this is more important than victory and not fighting spirit.
Every time we watch such a movie, perhaps the tense scenes before victory will still linger in front of us, but, more importantly, each of us has gained spiritual growth in the process.
