I love stories that weave historical figures and events into a message and plot. While Invictus wasn't the most riveting movie I've ever seen, I really enjoyed the characters, learning about what happened in South Africa in the '90s, and basking in the emotional payoff in the end. Plus, Grayman watched this one with me. A movie about sports? He's in.

How funny, one of my students mentioned this movie to me this morning. I'll have to check it out.
ReplyDeleteMy dad loved this one. I haven't seen it yet, but he said it was great. Sounds like a good one.
