Summary: Brian's Song This is a very good story it will bring tears to your eyes, or should I say make you cry. Summary: Biggest hit on Xmas I recently learned that Brian's Song was my friends all time favorite movie. I was delighted to find it at Amazon. Not only was she surprised to tears but her brother in law also admitted this was his favorite movie. Big hit for Christmas, 2007. Summary: Best "friendship" movie ever! This is a movie that everyone should see at least once. It will prove to those who thrive on prejudices that two people of different ethnic origins and from different backgrounds can form a true friendship. All it takes is the time to learn a little about the other person and find the commonalitites and that could be "the start of a beautiful friendship" (borrowing from "Casablanca"). Also listen to the words of the theme song; it's just beautiful. "If the hands of time were hands that I could hold, I'd keep them warm and in my hands they'd not turn cold..." This is a must-see movie for everyone! Summary: IT'S ONLY A GAME? Probably the best sports related movie of the modern era and an ideal stocking stuffer for the holidays.Caan gives an all star performance as Brian Piccolo, fullback of the Chicago Bears, who helps rookie Williams (Gale Sayers) adjust to the team and then to the N.F.L. itself.The duo quickly become fast friends as roomates, often a sticky issue in the racially charged 1960's and each seems to bring out the best in the other as friendly rivals. Warden seems totally miscast as Bears coach Geoge Halas and a cameo of Abe Gibron doesn't help, but otherwise the film runs smoothly.In truth, the film tends to over-excel simply because it's a film about life, not sports. Noted sports pest Howard Cosell admitted to many adults "weeping unashamedly" at a special pre-screening in 1973. Find a copy if you can, then see what the accolades were all about. Summary: ONE OF THE GREAT SPORTS STORIES!! This 1971 EMMY AWARD winning film about the friendship between Gale Sayers and Brian Piccolo of the Chicago Bears is one of the great sports and human interest stories. Brian & Gale were rookies together in 1965, both running backs and great college football players. They became the first black and white players to room together on the Bears. It's hard to believe it was only 40 years ago and many teams still had not broken the racial barriers off the field. I remember watching it on TV when it first aired and it was as good or better the 2nd time. Their friendship transcended their racial difference and their competition for the same position into a genuine love and respect for each other. As Gale experiences a potential career ending injury and Brian is diagnosed with cancer, their friendship grows into something very special. The selflessness of Brian helping Gale to recover from his injury which will ultimately put him back on the bench after replacing Gale is an inspiration. A great family film and especially for young athletes. Many clips of Gale's outstanding touchdown runs and he was one of the all time greats. Have a kleenix handy for the end. Enjoy!! [...] |
