and then I've got a sh*tload of work to do since I've been on the
computer all day. : ]
But since I'm so into movies I wanted to write something about
football and movies - but of the almost 200 dvds I own - I have
not one that is about football.
I even googled football movies - nothing.
But on looking over a list of football movies I did recognize one
of them and I'd like to say what I remember about Brian's Song:
~it's been a long time folks since I saw this on tv
~a story of courage and friendship
~a real for sure tearjerker
~James Caan
now I'm gonna google it for the rest
~directed by Buzz Kulik
~1971
~Billy Dee Williams
~Jack Warden
~Based on the real-life relationship between Gayle Sayers and Brian Piccolo
~Brian Piccolo is dying of cancer
I have thought about this movie from time to time.
And that is because it just was so good - so well done.
Also because of the Depth of the Feelings and Friendship shown in it -
and the Bond between these two Football Players.
These Feelings were so well Conveyed - that Even Now - it is Painful
to recall this Movie.
And what does this say?
To me it says a lot -
about Movies - Friendship - and Football Players.
