The connection, “Friendship can overcome anything” is a pattern that happens throughout all the films that I have studied. This happens in the films: The Boy in the Stripped Pyjamas directed by Mark Herman and is a Drama film/Film adaptation, Remember the Titans directed by Boaz Yankin and is a Sport/Drama film, and Tomorrow When the War Began directed by Stuart Beattie is a Drama film/Action film and Stand by me by Rob Reiner is a comedy/action/adventure.

Racism and discrimination are still very prominent everywhere, but as the students have to get along so they can become a better team, they learn that they all have a lot in common and look past their skin colour to become friends which means the power of friendship can overcome any situation.

The Titans had to work together to surpass their racial issues they learnt that it was crucial to the way they played to look pass their skin. They also had to learn to talk and come to know and understand each other. Gerry and Julius found that their skin colour shouldn’t stop them from being friends, Gerry and Julius started to notice that they had to develop trust and respect for each other to get along and play better as a team in general. As the Titans work at becoming better football players they started to trust each other and make a strong friendship with one another. Coach Boone and Yoast could make the team work and win the state championship because they put their racial differences aside and learnt to work together, in doing so they both become good friends. Gerry and Julius become amazing friends, they learnt to appreciate the meaning of, "trusting a man’s soul rather than their colour" and together they worked to overcome the racial issues. For example, When Gerry became hospitalized from a car accident, he asked Julius to come and visit him, but when the nurse states that only family can go into see him, Gerry looks at her and says, "Can’t you see the family resemblance?" This shows me that years of racism and discrimination are being overcome with friendship
