| | "This must-see Director's Cut, featuring a rousing performance by Academy Award-winner Denzel Washington (2001 - Best Actor, Training Day), gives you even more to cheer about. Experience a celebration of how a town torn apart by resentment, friction, and mistrust comes together in triumphant harmony. The year is 1971. After leading his team to 15 winning seasons, football coach Bill Yoast (Will Patton) is demoted and replaced by Herman Boone (Washington), tough, opinionated, and very different from the beloved Yoast. How these two men overcome their differences and turn a group of hostile young men into champions, plays out in a remarkable and winning story - now with all-new bonus features and scenes not shown in theaters! ![]() What is UMDTM?

...you may put a hand to your chest from time to time to see if your ribs are still in place. If a heart beats inside those ribs, you'll also find a lump in your throat and an overwhelming urge to cheer. - A.O. Scott
Chicago Sun-Times 8 of 10
All of this is said to be based on life, and no doubt largely is, but life was perhaps harder and more wounding than the film. "Remember the Titans" is not an activist 1970s picture, but more conciliatory in tone. It is more about football than race relations, and it wants us to leave the theater feeling not angry or motivated, but good. We do. There are true and touching moments in the film, on top of its undeniable entertainment value. I was moved by a scene near the end where an injured white player, who once said he would not play with blacks, now only wants his black "brother" in the hospital room. And there is a delicate series of scenes in which the same white player breaks up with his girlfriend rather than break the bonds he has formed with teammates during an August training camp. - Roger Ebert
