Forever Strong (2008)
VERY positive message for our youth
A very positive message for our youth is shown in this movie. Through the sport of rugby as a mean, a High School rugby coach leads his players in their behavior and lifestyle, ON and OFF the field.
The acting and directing are good. The rugby shots are just OK if you know some rugby or really cool if don't know much about it.
I recommend this movie, worth watching, especially at a point in time when this sport is gaining more and more adepts every day.
The plot is based on a true story taking place in Utah. The coach portrayed in this movie has been at the helm of the Highlanders for over 30 years (and loosing only game every 3 years).
Enjoy!

Oscars for best movie/Supporting Actor
You might agree or not with what "Che" did in his life. Most people would agree with his goals but less would agree with his means. However, this movie does not debate any of that. It is only showing us the amazing transformation that a medical student went through when he saw and felt, pain, suffering, and injustice. It's a story about human life, a brilliantly told story about a man wanting justice, not for him but for the needed ones, the poor. Rolando de la Serna's performarnce is brilliant, Oscar worthy.
Unfortunately since this movie represents so many countries (ironic, that's what Che wanted, a unified continent!), it is not clear how it can enter in the race for Oscars (yes, not just one). The director is Brazilian, the main actor Mexican, the supporting actor and most of the cast are from Argentina, Robert Redford, the producer, is American, then a Puerto Rican and a French complete the main team. And, the movie was filmed in Argentina, Chile and Peru. If you want to see a movie with the rest of Che's life wait until 2006 (there is another coming with Benicio del Toro & Co.)
