光辉岁月2000

又是一个真人真事改编的电影，老美怎么就有这么多故事改编啊，我们没有么？难道我们就只能通过大辫子戏来折射对当代社会的讽刺而不是指着鼻子骂么？

电影讲述的是，70年代，美国刚刚开始废除种族歧视，高中的球队从单一的白人变成了黑人和白人混合，黑人主教练和白人助理教练携手共进，让这只史无前例的混合人种球队获得了州冠军、全美亚军，十三场连胜。多么不容易啊，不容易的不仅仅是比赛，更在于让黑人和白人成为朋友。

相对于比赛激烈的后半部分，我更喜欢看前半部分教练教会大男孩们交朋友的过程，的确，虽然在训练营中，黑人和白人小伙由于起居、训练都在一起，加上本身种族歧视的观念就不深，所以自然就很好的融合在了一起，但是从训练营比赛归来之后，面对学校、社会、家庭中的种种种族歧视势力，他们素手无策，只能选择沉默。但是只要是在赛场，他们就是亲兄弟，就是攥成一个铁拳的十指，所以他们才能无往不胜，甚至在没有教练在场的情况下，也知道拧成一股绳。球队的成绩压制住了种族歧视的观念，事情进入良性循环，环境才一步步好转。

能够把球队带好好不难，难的是把一只成绩不好的球队训练成为冠军。我们现在对环境的大肆破坏，难道就是为了培养将来的环境治理“大跃进”创造环境？

很佩服片中的白人警察（好像那个时候的警察暂时还都是白人呢，至少片中是这样的），不排除他们之中有有种族歧视的人，但是他们在执行公务（保护黑人不受种族歧视分子伤害）的时候，却表现的非常出色，值得钦佩。更佩服将禁止种族歧视写入法律的人，他们才是真正的幕后英雄，林肯总统也没有白白牺牲～

片中的有些裁判倒是很不争气哦，呵呵。

题外话：怎么美式足球球员发球的时候，姿势那么像大猩猩呢？

1971年的美国处于种族歧视的高峰，在这样的环境下，一名黑人橄榄球总教练与知名白人教练携手合作，抛开任何束缚与阻碍，用他们的领导力，用他们感恩的心，提升团队的向心力，让黑白皮肤的球员为了能打好球在同一个球场打好每场比赛，最后赢得了总冠军！

不同的对立面有同样的目标，并持续建立共同的信念；
好的领导人会了解每个队员的价值与特质，把适合的人放在了适合的位置，发挥了团队的综合效应，每个队员几乎都能攻防兼备；
队员们为了赢得比赛，实现共同的目标，用真诚去了解认识对方，彼此建立信任感，在团队混乱时，都能用积极正面的心态彼此影响与鼓励，训练的过程中产生了坚固的友谊；

一个人成功是因为有很多贵人的帮助！
一个企业的成功是因为有一个伟大又有向心力的团队！
一个国家的成功是因为有千万个有共同目标一起努力奋斗的民众！
团队的合作是伟大的！每个人都发挥着他独立的价值！
发现与打造这样团队的领导者也是很了不起的！
请问您是这样有智慧有魄力有责任有奉献精神的领导人吗？

影片的情节简单，却富有深意。它并不是一部单纯的运动类影片，而是通过一位黑人教练的事迹来反映人类对平等与自由的憧憬。
70年代，赫尔曼-布恩(Herman Boone)曾以自己独特的方式为反对种族歧视、调节种族矛盾作出过重要贡献，他也因此被奉为一位黑人英雄。当然相比较马丁-路德金，赫尔曼-布恩并不是一个家喻户晓的名字，时至今日更少会有人记得他，但是弗吉尼亚人都记住了Titan队的名字，因为它是黑白市民的共同骄傲，这大概正是该片起名为Remember the Titans的原因吧。

   每个人都有生命中值得铭记的阶段吗?属于我们的光辉岁月是什么？一生中有这么一段让你全力以赴，热血沸腾的时光，就已是上天给你的最大的恩赐。不管这条路你是否会继续走下去，也不管你会不会继续这一段辉煌，不管将来你会变成怎样的人，有怎样的前途，以何种形式结束。你会铭记泰坦教给你的：团结、拼搏、宽容、公正！你会记得白色的泰瑞黑色的朱利不分彼此，记得他们说：我们要一起变老变胖。

About Remember The Titans

It was an encouraging movie based on a real story happened in 1971. In 1971, a court order forces three high schools (two white, and one African-American), to integrate their student bodies and faculties for the first time. Because of that, Bill Yoast, the longtime head-coach in T.C. Williams high school football team, had to quit his job or became an assistant coach. The team added a half of black players and needed a black coach. As a result, Herman Boone, a distinctive black coach, became the head-coach of this football team, and Mr. Yoast became an assistant coach. Firstly, the white and black guys always fought against each other, but later, after a special and extremely tough camp, they started to be a real team. They were harmonious and extraordinary in that time, but the amicable relationship between the white and black players seemed hard to be accepted by other people. Finally, they used their perfect grade, the state championship, to be a soul leader of the integration.
        I like this film and I don’t know which part I like most exactly. I have to say I like the whole film. I like Yoast’s little girl named Sheryl. She loved her dad so much that she kicked the man who came to tell her father somebody would take his job. She was so lovely.~~ I am fond of Coach Yoast, because he gave up the opportunity of entering the Hall of Fame in order to get the game victory. He was always playing a key role in the games, especially when the Titans were almost defeated, like showing up the judge’s cheating. I love Coach Boon, too. Though he was kind of mean to his players, he was mean equally to everybody. He was confident, even a little bit vain. When he first met Mr. Yoast, he said he came to win and he would be the head-coach. But he was really great, because he did it. I also enjoy the parts of team members. Julius and Gerry, they could lead the whole team well and played an important part in the bond of two sides. Besides, I was impressed so much on their firm friendship. Petey and Lewis were also appreciated by me because they made the team vigorous and energetic. What’s more, I like their special style of entering the football field, I like their making fun on each other, I like their dancing and singing and so on. In a word, everybody in this team was great and the whole film made me warm-blooded!
        “Alice, are you blind? Don't you see the family resemblance? That's my brother.” It was said by Gerry. At that time he got to be paralyzed for a car accident and Julies walked into the patience room while the nurse said “only kin’s allowed in here.” Gerry called Julies brother and then smiled. That segment totally touched me. Gerry was a great football player and was the captain. Being paralyzed was considered as a huge disaster. It meant the end of his football life. But what surprised me most was that he was even able to play jokes. He said the family resemblance existed between him and Julies. He took Julies as a brother. It reminded me of the terrible situation when this two guys firstly met. They were quite indifferent and felt disgust to each other. At that time, no one was able to imagine their relationship later. Because Julies was a black people, Gerry’s mother banned Gerry to go out with him, also, Gerry’s friends, including his girlfriend, were opposed to his new black friends. In that period, discrimination was still rooted in some white people. So in this aspect, the friendship between Gerry and Julies was quite amazing. I really wish they could “get old and get fat together.”
        
Here are some examples of how they changed.
        When Coach Boone first visited Coach Yoast, little Sheryl opened the door and rejected him immediately. But later, after getting along with him for a long time, she started to compromise. She even went to Coach Boone’s house talking about the football team with him.
        When the first day Coach Boone’s family moved there, the neighborhoods discriminated him as if the black family would disgust them. But later, Titans won several games, and Coach Boone won a lot of reputation. They gave a warm applause to Coach Boone when he turned back home. They started to respect this family.
        Gerry’s girlfriend was one of the impressive roles in this film. At the beginning, when Gerry told her that he had some black friends, she was astonished because in her mind, color was strong enough to divide friends. She thought they were living in a totally different world and they would never cross the line determined by color. However, she finally realized that it was her own fault. The society was changing. In the last game, she also came to the football field to cheer the Titans.
        What can be learnt?
As far as I am concerned, the most important thing can be learnt from the organized sports is the cooperation. In the last game, the State Championship Game, when Titans was going to lose, Julies said to Coach Boone, “I am not perfect, and I will never be. None of us are, but the team is perfect. ” Football is a team work, it needs everyone’s effort. There are many different positions in games. In this movie, it has the quarterback, halfback, running back, wide receiver and so on. Someone belong to offence and someone belong to defence. Having a good cooperation is the key to win. The other thing can learn is, being confident. In a team game, every player must have confidence in teammates and also in himself. And the last one is, never give up. A dream will not end until you stop trying. In a game, every second should be grasped till the ending whistles. Don’t give up, and you will succeed.

又是一部结合了种族冲突和体育的好电影。这部电影有些类似于南非曼德拉的《成事在人》：通过体育运动（对抗性和团队合作性极强的美式橄榄球）来达到黑人与白人的种族融合，同时给人心灵上的感动。

黑人教练为如何做好一个好领导做出了模范：求胜欲强，工作上严苛，通过高强度的训练把人的潜力挖掘出来，不会因顾及人的感受而对自己的原则妥协，同时又公平地对待每一个人。他不柔情，因为他心中有比讨好别人更伟大的目标：他需要胜利来证明自己，用实际行动来改变这个世界疯狂的歧视。而私下里又象变了一个人一样，是一个好朋友、好父亲。

相比之下，白人教练有些象“好好先生”，他会去抚慰因责骂而气馁的队员，但同时也会因为自己的偏好而造成了不公平。他很正直，他看重的是真正的光明正大的胜利和对于真正的高水平的尊敬，而不会为了自己的利益而和别人同流合污。

结合我的亲身经历，我不得不承认黑人教练的风格是做一个成功的管理者的标准，虽然这会让他的手下不舒服，甚至有抵触心理，但只有这样才能获得非凡的成功。这就是所谓的领导的魄力和智慧吧。

年轻人的心态比较开放，种族观念比较不那么根深蒂固。那些白人男孩从开始对黑人的一触即发的愤怒转变为把黑人作为自己一生中最好的朋友

美国的种族歧视也有地域性，在加州和一些地方好一些，而弗吉尼亚就很严重。
