Yours Mine and Ours

 Hey Everyone, It’s May 31st.

I hope you all had a wonderful Memorial Day, I had a wonderful May I went to a Grace Girls Conference which was absolutely amazing and I saw my Cousin Graduate from Penn University with a Masters Degree for Mental Health, I was blessed to see my Aunt and Uncle and My Beautiful and amazing Cousins, it was a lot of fun. 

I will talk more about that later for today I am writing about one of my favorite Movies Yours Mine and Ours It Stars Dennis Quaid, Rene Russo  ,Danielle Panabaker and a whole amazing Cast. 

 It is a comedy/ Romance Movie I am sure you and your family will enjoy it, It Starts out with Widowed U.S. Coast Guard Rear Admiral Frank Beardsley who moves back to his home town of New London Connecticut who he has eight children from his first marriage.

He unexpectedly runs into his friend Helen North they were High School Sweethearts they see each other at a restaurant.

 Helen White is also Widowed and a handbag designer, they each had separate dates when they run into each other at the restaurant, they see each other again at there 30 - year class reunion, they instantly rekindle their old spark ⚡️ after doing some talking with one another they decide to Quickly get married in a private Ceremony.

 They already are aware of the fact that Frank has eight kids from his first marriage and Helen has Ten from her first Marriage.

 She has a mixture of biological children and some she adopted , the family moves into their new home, on the same property where there lighthouse is that is also where they shared their first kiss, they are joined by the North children’s numerous pets and Frank’s housekeeper, Mrs. Munion. 

The more time that is spent living together it becomes apparent that as a coast guard admiral, Frank has a very regimented view of how things should be done , where as his wife Helen is more of a free spirit and lackadaisical attitude.

Their children are a product of their parents views, are shocked and surprised by the news of their parents quickie wedding, and don’t get along very well at first, they turn a light house renovation project into an all out paint fight.

 After that whole Incident Franks oldest son William calls a meeting among the kids and tells them they can rid themselves of this new situation by joining together to make their parents respective philosophical differences apparent and effectively cause them to start fighting.

 While this situation is going on, the kids start bonding taking part in activities as attending their siblings soccer ⚽️ games and also helping William in his campaign for class president. 

A little while later, Frank and Helen attend a formal Coast Guard diner where Frank’s superior Commandant Sherman, Officially offers Frank the opportunity to be his successor, he cites his obligations to the Coast Guard Academy and his new family he respectfully declines.

 The older kids throw a party that wildly gets out of control and Frank and Helen Come home to find their home in total Chaos, Frank is absolutely furious while Helen is more calm and laid back which makes Frank even angrier and that causes them to have their biggest fight yet.

The kids see how happy their parents have been together and realize they may have pushed this a little to far. You will have to see the rest of the movie to find out what happens the rest of the movie is really good and will leave you with a smile on your face and joy in your Heart 💜 .  I like this movie because it makes me laugh and smile also because it talks about family and how family supports each other and loves one another and have fun together. I am a big family person , I love spending time with my family and visiting my family and making memories and hugging 🤗 them .

 I had such a wonderful time visiting with my family in Philly celebrating my cousins graduation 👩‍🎓 and seeing my cousin who I haven’t seen since 2012 , I Hadn’t seen her in ten years and I got to meet her beautiful daughters in person for the first time which was very exciting I’ve only seen them and talked to them over face time which is also good 😊 and fun seeing them and getting to experience them in person is an experience I will always remember and treasure.

 I Played a fun uno game with my cousins too.

 We laughed a lot during the game . Seeing my Cousin achieve her Masters degree 📜 that she worked so hard for was a thrilling and inspiring experience, I am so deeply proud 🥹 of her she’s absolutely amazing and has the biggest and caring heart 💜 her name is Sharrie Williams she’s a news Anchor on ABC News 6 , Check out that channel sometime and Support my Cousin she does an Outstanding Job.

I believe my family knows how much I love 💕 them and I know how much they love me. You will see a lot of love , laughing dramatic moments in the movie in the end it all works out and they are a still a loving , big happy family .

My Bestie☺️ Adrian

 



Hey Everyone!!! I hope you all are having a wonderful Tuesday so far. I had an amazing day yesterday, it was the thirty second anniversary of my church ⛪️ Dayspring Ministries, it was a wonderful and uplifting service. I really felt Gods presence In the room. 

I had a wonderful weekend, I got to see my favorite Singer Anthony Evans he did an outstanding job I went with my wonderful friend Nomble we really enjoyed the conference.

 I had a tough couple of days these last couple of weeks, I was hanging out with my dog Elijah and my mom calls me over and told me that a friend of our family’s passed away, that hurt my heart and I was saddened by it. 

I was feeling still a little sad I was better in a couple of days a little later I was getting ready to get my hair done, I arrived at my appointment and while I was there I found about another really good of mine that passed away, her passing hit me really really hard so hard that my heart 💜 felt very Heavy, I was saddened for her family and her kids and her sorority sisters and friends.

 She was a wonderful and caring and very happy 😊 woman her smile always lit up the room and she was always in a wonderful and joyful mood when I saw her, I’m thankful and blessed for the moments God gave me to have with her while she was still here on the earth. 

With this friends passing my Heart took a little while longer to heal because we were really good friends and we also both went to Penn State, I was reading Facebook and it said to tell people how much you love and care for them now because tomorrow’s not promised. 

I decided to text my big Sister Adrian to tell her how much I love 💕 and care for her because tomorrow’s not promised,  She has done a lot for me in my life, she is my Bestie! The last time I saw 👀 her was March 3rd , it was good to see her then and I’m glad I got to see her.

 After that life got a Little busy and I had few things going on, and after the two deaths of my friends my heart felt very heavy and she always knows how to make me feel better, she told me that’s why we have to enjoy everyday and be in the moment. 

Since I hadn’t seen in her awhile my Heart was just wanting to make a connection and see her smiling face because then my Heart would feel better and happy because it’s always a blessing to see her and be in her presence, she always lights up the whole room and she is like an Angel she wears her crown 👑 very well.

  I know that God is very proud of her and smiling down on her, I believe she blesses a lot of lives with her caring and big heart and her bright and happy smile.

For the Church Anniversary is when I got to see her, it made me feel so happy and joyful inside That I got to see my big sister and wonderful friend. 

She gives me the best hugs, I was sharing with my mom that I was so happy 😁 to see her and that the hug 🤗 I got from my big sister.

 I really needed that because my heart was going through a tough heartache, and after seeing her and worshiping God with her and having my Good friend come to church with me and seeing my First Lady and getting a nice 😊 hug 🤗 from her my Heart felt like it was starting to heal and felt like it wasn’t broken anymore. 

She is my favorite person in the whole wide world. I’m glad that I am able to trust her and share my Heart 💜 with her, she is a wonderful big sister and mentor, and also a mom figure to me.

 I feel like she is a second mom to me, she is so wise and intelligent and the light of God shines in her and through her. 

 I wrote this today because I am so happy to have a fun and awesome 👏 Bestie. I always get a big smile on my face when I hear from her my mom says my whole face 💡 lights up! And I love and appreciate her with all my heart 💜. And she can always count on me for anything. I just would encourage you guys to enjoy the moment and each day while you are still here and living and tell the people that you love and care for them and what they mean to you while they are still here , please don’t let the moment pass you by when you get a feeling in your spirit or feel like you should say or do something then do it because tomorrow is not promised.

The Shack

 Hey Everyone, I hope you all are having a wonderful April so far.

I have decided to write about the movie the Shack Starring Sam Worthington, Octavia Spencer, Tim McGraw, and a wonderful Cast. 

The movie Stars off with Mackenzie Phillips Mac for short who is suffering Physical and Emotional abuse at the hands of his drunken father, who abuses his mother as well.

One day the family all goes to church and he tells the pastor about his abuse he’s been suffering and because of that he is punished by his father he starts beating him, and because of that the mother leaves them, and at the age of 13, he decides to poison his father with Strychnine in his whiskey. 

 A few years go by and he is married to Nan and has three kids one boy and three girls, who he absolutely adores, Kate Josh, and Missy, Mackenzie takes his kids camping and unfortunately an incident happens and Missy turns up missing and his world falls apart he was saving his two oldest kids from a canoe accident.

Mackenzie calls the police and the police determine Missy was a victim of a serial killer after finding her dress that is torn and blood in a derelict cabin in the forest Kate blames herself for Missy’s death, because she caused the canoe accident in the first place. 

The Tragedy derails Mack’s faith and his life, until one winter  when he receives an unstamped typewritten  note inviting him to meet at the shack , the message is signed Papa that was a nickname Missy used for God.

 Mack thinks this is his opportunity to meet with the killer and Punishing him Mac takes his gun , borrows his friends SUV and drives there avoiding a accident with a truck on the way, he finds the shack empty he is so upset he tries to end his life.

 Before he does he sees a mysterious figure who leads him to a trio of strangers who invite him to stay at their house nearby. 

The trio of Strangers gradually reveal their Identities, God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit you will see who they are when you watch the movie, the purpose of their visit Is to help Mack better understand his life from a broader context and Prospective, and to heal himself and his family after Missy’s death. 

Mack Helps Jesus build a wooden box and helps the Holy Spirit prepare a spot for her in the garden for a planting.

 Papa changes form into a Native American Man who leads him to the cave where Missy’s body is located together they prepare her body for burial. 

The rest of the movie is very moving, encouraging, and Heart felt you will have to see the movie to see what else happens. 

I decided to write about this movie because It is a Heart Felt Story and if you are dealing with Grief or a loss it helps you heal in a way and know that even though your loved 🥰 one is gone or the person you really cared about and loved has passed away they are always with you and watching over you and making sure you are doing ok.  

A few of my family members have passed away, that was hard for me because I really loved and cared about all of them I love all of my family very much, and I always love seeing them and spending time with them.

I make sure to cherish each moment when I’m with them because life is short, and you never know what the day will bring its important to let people know now how much they mean to you and how much you care about them while they are still here and can hear it and receive it. And there is also a good book you can read also it’s Called Divine Disruption by the Evans Family . They are a wonderful family and it’s a wonderful book it’s helped me a lot.  I recommend this movie to anyone who wants to watch a good movie.

Tangled


Good Afternoon Everyone. Tomorrow’s the big day!!! Tomorrow is my birthday 🥳 I’ll be Turning 27 I can’t believe it. 

I have decided to write about one of my favorite Disney movie it stars Mandy Moore and Zachary Levi, it also stars Donna Murphy. 

The movie is called Tangled, It starts off with a drop of Sunlight falling from the sky and producing a magic flower with healing properties. 

We then see an old Woman Gothel who uses the flower to retain her youth, we see a few years ago by and then later the flower is taken by soldiers from the kingdom of Corona and uses to save their Queen is who sick and pregnant she gives birth to a baby girl named Rapunzel.

 All of a sudden Gothel sneaks into the castle and discovers that Rapunzel’s hair also inherited the flowers magic if her hair is cut it doesn’t work anymore.

 Gothel wants to keep the flowers magic In order to do that she kidnaps Rapunzel and raises her as her own child in a tower hidden in the woods. 

Each year on her birthday the King and Queen release sky lanterns hoping they will bring their daughter home. 

Rapunzel is fascinated by the Annual lights and it is the Eve of her 18th birthday she asks her mom if she can leave the tower and investigate she refuses,  claiming the outside world is too dangerous.

 In the Meantime Flynn Rider Steals Rapunzel’s intended crown from the palace, he abandons his partner’s in crime the stabbington Brothers while being pursued by royal guards. 

A horse named Maximus Flynn discovers him and takes refuge in the tower,  where Rapunzel knocks him out and hides him In a closet . 

She attempts to show him to her mom as proof that she can defend herself, she berates her and tells her she will never leave the tower. 

Rapunzel has a plan she asks for new paint as a  gift, she sends her mother on a three day journey, she makes a deal with Flynn, promising him she will return the crown in exchange taking her to see the lights, they stop at a snuggly duckling pub, menacing thugs try to capture Flynn Rapunzel charms them into showing their nice sides.

The royal guards arrive and help Flynn and Rapunzel escape, Rapunzel’s mother finds Maximus without a rider and recognizes him as a horse from the place , she immediately becomes suspicious, she comes back to an empty tower , finds the crown and a wanted poster of Flynn. 

 She strikes a deal with his crime partners to find Rapunzel,  Flynn and Rapunzel become trapped in a fast flooding cave believing they will suffocate, He tells her his real name Eugene Fitzherbert, she uses the magic glow of her hair to reveal a hidden exit beneath the water and they escape. 

That evening her mother finds her and tells to give it to Eugene to test his loyalty. There is a lot more exciting adventure and drama 🎭 that come up in the story I don’t want to give away the ending I will tell you it is a happy ending for Flynn and Rapunzel.

I love how their story flows and comes together in the movie and how they grow close to one another and how they end up liking one another. 

I decided to write this blog today because I thought it would be a fun 🤩 thing to do on my birthday eve and it is something I will always remember doing as I think about the memories and other things I have done while being 26.

 I also wrote because I like how she is also a Princess 👑 because my nickname is Princess Emerald. And I really appreciate and treasure the name Princess because it’s something that is close to my Heart 💜 and  it makes me happy. I was nervous 😟 about Turning 27 and how it would turn out I’ve gotten good advice the last couple of days and one piece of Advice was from my big sister and she said to live in the now and the present, and that is what I’m going to do.

 Im going to live in the now and enjoy the moments and birthdays 🥳 I will be blessed with. This is a really good movie to watch, I recommend it to anyone who wants to watch a good heart felt movie.

Sweet Home Alabama


Hey Everyone!!! It’s March 5th, I’m getting ready to celebrate my birthday in ten days March 15th! I will be turning 27 years old.

 I’m very excited, I have decided to write about the movie Sweet Home Alabama starring Reese Witherspoon, Patrick Dempsey and Josh Lucas.

 The movie starts out in the town of Pigeon Creek Alabama, with a ten year old boy named Jake Perry and Ten year old Girl named Melanie Smooter who are inspecting a result of a lighting strike that hit the sand, Jake tells Melanie they will be married one day a few years go by and we are in the present day.

We see Melanie all grown up into a full grown woman she is a successful New York Fashion Designer who has gotten a new name which is Carmichael to hide her southern roots. 

After her boyfriend Andrew Hennings  who is very wealthy proposes, Melanie returns to her hometown Alabama to announce her engagement , and finalize a divorce from her husband Jake, who she married when she was expecting a baby as a teenager and she ended up with a miscarriage and then she left.

In the meantime Andrews mother and the mayor of New York City is doubting Melanie’s suitability to marry Andrew who she is in the process of grooming to run for president of the United States.

 Melanie visits Jake who has repeatedly denied and refused to sign the divorce papers since she left for New York.

After he orders her out of his house, she empties his checking account she hopes that will cause him to end the marriage.

 Jake is very angry he meets his friends at the local bar without signing the papers, Melanie follows him and she ends up having too much to drink, she insults her old school mates, and she outs one of her friends she has for a long time named Bobby Ray. 

Jake scolds her and he takes her home, preventing her from driving since she had a few drinks, the next morning Melanie wakes up to find the divorce papers signed. 

Melanie goes to the Carmicheal Plantation and apologizes to Bobby Ray, whose family lives there, she is cornered by Kate’s assistant sent to gather information on Melanie’s background and she is posing as a reporter for the New York Post, Bobby Ray backs up her pre-tense that she is a relative and the family Mansion is her childhood home. 

Melanie reconciles with her friends from them she learns that after she split with Jake, he had followed her to New York to win her back he was a little intimidated by the city and her success he returned back home to make something of himself first, she and Jake have a heart to heart Melanie then realizes why he didn’t sign their divorce papers. 

Andrew arrives in Alabama to surprise Melanie, he soon finds out about her true background and she never told him she was married, he angrily leaves,  he comes back later telling her he still wants to marry her and the wedding is immediately set in motion,

Melanie’s friends arrive from New York for the event, they visit a nearby restaurant/ resort with a glassblowing gallery, they admire the glass sculptures they are similar to the ones they have seen in New York. Melanie realizes Jake is the Artist and that he owns the resort. 

I decided to write about this movie because it is a wonderful movie and very Heart -warming and a wonderful story, and it also shows how absence makes the heart grow fonder, and how someone always holds a special place in their heart for you and how they love you still even after you have been gone for awhile.

 And how your home is always a part of you, like even when you leave your home and go to another state or a different house or something your original home and state is always a part of you, the message of the movie is you can take the girl out of the south, you can’t take the south out of the girl. 

 Like for example Dayspring Ministries is My Church Home,  I have gone there since I was a little girl, I know a lot of people there and have I have a wonderful church family, later my family decided to look at a couple of other churches and attend there we became members of a couple other churches and had a nice time, later we decided to come back to Dayspring because that is our home church ⛪️. And we love Dayspring so we are at our Home Church and having a wonderful time. 

I have had a lot of wonderful and amazing experiences since I have been back there, God has really blessed me, I also wanted to write this because I wanted to add this to my Birthday 🥳 Countdown I love my Birthday, I always celebrate my birthday and myself big, life is short and I want to make sure while I am still here and while God is keeping me here , I want to enjoy every birthday and age  that I am blessed to have. 

I have enjoyed all the fun and amazing things 26 has brought me I’ll always treasure it, I am looking forward to what 27 has , and what fun experiences and adventures are coming with it. 

Reese Witherspoon does an outstanding job in this movie, she really brings the character to life and you feel every emotion that she feels when you are watching the movie. 

She really gets into the role of Melanie. You should also see her in Sing 🎤 she does an incredible job in that movie too, I especially like her in Sing 2. She is one of my favorite actresses. I recommend this movie to anyone who wants to have a good laugh 😂.

Little Mermaid

 



Hey Everyone!!! I have decided to write about little Mermaid starring Halle Bailey, Melissa McCarthy, Jonah Hauer king and Javier Bradem. 

It’s one of my favorite movies I have loved it since I was a little girl, I love the story. 

The story starts off with Ariel who is the youngest of seven sisters, you will learn who her sisters are when you watch the movies just in case you need a refresh their names are Anita,Alana, Adella, Aquata, Arista and Andrina. 

Ariel is the daughter of King Triton ruler of all the mer-people in Atlantica. She is  very fascinated with the human world despite never seeing it and never being in it before. 

Her dad forbids all merfolk from going there after Ariel’s mother was killed by a human.  

Ariel is supposed to be singing at a concert done by the crab Sebastian who you will see in the movie, he’s very funny and a good friend to Ariel he’s the kings right hand person . 

Ariel decides to go exploring she sees fireworks above the ocean goes to the surface to see them better.

 The fireworks are coming from Eric’s ship he is the prince of a nearby island, all of a sudden a storm arrives the ship crashes against rocks and causes it to break they are forced to go to the lifeboats . 

Eric sees his dog Max is still on the boat, he runs up and rescues him and then he is stuck on the boat, he ends up falling in the water and Ariel rescues him, she brings him to shore and sings to him with her beautiful voice to help save his life.  

He loves her voice and he starts to wake up to see who the voice belongs to, she disappears before he can regain consciousness. 

Her father is noticing Ariel is a little absent-minded , he talks to Sebastian who reveals to him that she rescued a human. 

As you know that makes her father Triton very upset , he goes to confront Ariel in her grotto, he tells her to promise him she will never return to the surface when she refuses to swear she won’t return to the surface he destroys her collection of human objects. 

Ariel is very upset and heart broken, she tells everyone to go away, you can tell her dad is remorseful after seeing her sad face, 

Ariel is later approached by two moray eels sent by the sea witch Ursula who I didn’t know is Tritons sister and Is Ariel’s aunt who was banished from Atlantica 15 years ago.  Ariel goes to Ursula’s lair and she is presented with a deal, she will turn into a human being for 3 days with those three days that she is a human she must have a true loves kiss to remain a human being forever and permanently. 

If Ariel doesn’t receive the kiss she will belong and have to live with Ursula forever, In order for Ariel to become human she has to give up two things I know right ?

 She has to give up her tail, her ability to breathe underwater and her beautiful singing voice Ursula will keep her voice in a shell 🐚. Ariel accepts the deal , after she receives her human legs she is taken to the surface by her best fish friend flounder and Sebastian. 

Once she reaches the real human world 🌍, she is rescued and taken to the castle of Prince Eric, Guess what Eric has been searching for the woman who saved his life he rushes to meet Ariel.

 He doesn’t realize yet she Is the woman who he has been searching for, you’ll see that later in the movie.  She can’t speak her lack of voice has him turned away, while she is exploring the castle Ariel finds a collection of items Eric collected he accumulated over his travels, Eric spends time with her poring over his collection.

After Ariel gets a good nights rest the next morning Eric takes her sight seeing around the kingdom, Sebastian has followed her he realizes Ursula put a cheat in the spell to make Ariel forget she is supposed to kiss him, along with her friend Scuttle who is a northern garnet, and flounder Sebastian takes it upon himself to get them to kiss.

They almost are successful with the kiss, they are thwarted by Ursula’s eels. Ursula is very angry about the close call with Eric and Ariel, I can’t believe what Ursula does next , she turns herself into a human and takes Ariel’s beautiful voice as her own to hypnotize Eric. 

Back at the kingdom, Triton has the kingdom search for Ariel and begins to regret the way he treated her. The next morning Ariel and her friends discover Eric will be Announcing his engagement to Vanesa who is you won’t believe it Ursula later that day. 

Ariel makes her way to the engagement party confronts Ursula and she breaks the shell. She gets her voice back and the enchantment on Eric is broken, unfortunately before they can kiss, the sun sets and Ariel is turned back into her original form a mermaid , Ursula drags Ariel back to the ocean. 

The rest of the movie is really good it will keep you on the edge of your seat until the end of the movie, it has a lot of amazing and fun scenes in the movie and a lot of action and a couple dramatic scenes. It has a lot of beautiful colors portrayed in the movie. 

  I know a lot of the songs that are played in the movie and i sing along with all of them. Melissa McCarthy did an outstanding job as Ursula she brought her to life, and made her seem like she was very real . She also has a wonderful singing voice, and Halle did an outstanding job as Ariel, you really felt her emotions and feelings and all what she was going through the whole movie, it was like you were on the journey with her and swimming along with her and singing with her. 

Ariel is one of my favorite princesses because she reminds me a little of myself with her love of singing, her caring and loving heart, the way she protects and fights for those who she loves, and how she wants to see the world and be a part of a lot of different things in her life. She is strong and brave and wants ready to explore life and what is has to offer. 

One of my favorite songs is Under the sea, because it explains what life is like under the sea, and how much fun the sea is. And I enjoy the words in the song too.

 I also really like part of your world how it explains how Ariel wants to be part of the human world and the things she wants to do In the human world and all the questions she has about the world , and how excited and happy she would be to be part of that world.  

One of my favorite memories from this movie is seeing it with my big sister, it’s a memory I will Cherish and keep in my heart forever, another special memory I will always cherish and love 💕 is her singing to me part of that world. 

She has a beautiful singing voice and it’s really calming to my spirit and Heart.  My favorite scenes from the little mermaid is Ursula singing her song Poor Unfortunate Souls, she does a good job with that song 🎵 and I also love where Ariel and Sebastian sing Under the Sea together it’s a very fun and upbeat song I think you will enjoy it and love 💕 it too when you see it! It also shows how dreams can come true if you believe and do everything you can to make it come true and believe it will with all your Heart, I know and believe my dream will come true with working at Disney. 

I recommend this movie to anyone who wants to see a nice and moving story.

Remember the Titans



Hey Everyone, I hope you had a wonderful Valentine’s Day and having a good week!

 In celebration of Black History Month, I have decided to write about Remember the Titans, which is about two teams of different people and colors coming together and becoming a team and friends together.

 The movie Stars Denzel Washington, Ryan Gosling, Ryan Hurst, Wood Hurst. 

The movie starts off with Coach Yoast Daughter Cheryl narrating the story of how two football teams became integrated. 

Bill Yoast is the new Integrated T.C. Williams High School in Alexandra Virginia , He just started Summer Workouts with his football players when he is informed  Herman Boone a black head coach who was originally hired to coach the city’s Black High School Team, has been assigned to Bill’s coaching staff instead. 

After he learns this there is an attempt to placate rising racial tensions and the fact that other high schools in Alexandria are white only, despite the abolition of racial serration in public schools the school district decides to name Boone the head coach.

Boone at first refuses the job because he thinks it’s not fair to Yoast who is a successful who is nominated to the Virginia high school of fame. 

He then changes his mind and decides after seeing what it means to the community of black people.  

After Yoast learns Boone accepted the job he tells his football players he tells his players he accept a head coach position elsewhere, his players tell him they will boycott the team if he is not their coach. 

He is dismayed at the prospect of the Students losing their chance at a scholarship, Bill changes his mind and decides to accept Bone’s offer to serve as his defensive coordinator, Later in the movie we see Coach Boone holding his first team meeting with mostly black students in the school gymnasium, which is interrupted by Yoast and several white students.

 Yoast informs Boone of his decision about the team, Boone warns Yoast and tells him he won’t tolerate him undermining him. 

It is now August 15th and the players journey to Gettysburg College for Training camp. Early on in the camp the football players are clashing with each other, in racially motivated conflicts, especially between the two Captains Gerry Berteir who is white and and Julius Campbell who is black. 

However through very hard training, forceful coaching, and a motivational early morning run to the Gettysburg National Cemetery followed by a very emotional speech by Boone,  the team comes together and returns as a united group. 

It is now time for their first football game , before the game starts Boone Is informed by a member of the school board that even if he loses a single game, he will be dismissed. 

Good news subsequently, the titans go undefeated while battling racial prejudice and gaining support for the community.

It is almost time for the state semi -finals , Bill is told by the chairman of the school board that they arranged for the titans to lose so Boone can be fired and dismissed and Bill will once again be the head coach. 

The game starts and during the game , the referees are making unfair calls against the titans.

 Bill is seeing the chairman and other board members of the school looking on with satisfaction, Bill marches onto the field to warn the head referee that If the game is not officiated fairly, he will expose the whole scandal to the press.

 After his talk with the reff, the titans shut their opponents and advance to the state championships.  Bill is told by the Very upset Chairman that the actions he made in saving Boones Job have resulted in him losing his Hall of Fame nomination. 

Later in the evening the titans are celebrating the victory , Gerry is severely injured in a car accident and is paralyzed from the waist down. Despite the loss of the All-American Linebacker , the team mounts a comeback in the fourth quarter of the state championship and wins the title. 

Ten years go by this time Gerry dies in another car crash caused by a drunk driver , after winning the gold medal in the shot put in the Paralympic Games.

The opening scene of the beginning of the movie Is the funeral scene of Gerry where all his teammates and and former football coaches are Julius who Gerry’s mother didn’t like at first is now holing her hand as he leads the team in a mourning rendition of Na Na Hey Hey Goodbye.

There are a few dramatic scenes that happen in the movie, and a couple inspirational teaching moments that happen in the movie too. 

The movie will really touch and move your heart in a good way. 

I decided to write about this movie because it shows how people of different color and races can come together and be friends.

  It reminds me of the speech Dr. King Made how he had a dream that White People and black people would come together and be united and work together as a team. 

And in this movie it shows his dream coming to life and they become united and became friends. I also decided to write about this movie because Denzel Washington is one of my favorite actors and I enjoy his movies he did an outstanding job in this role he played. 

My favorite scene from the movie is when Sunshine Defends Rev from one of the football players and his teammates say don’t mess with Sunshine. 

You will see it when you watch the movie he gets inspiration from his coach. My Other favorite scene is when they dance on the football field and they say we are the titans the mighty mighty titans.
