Teen Titans

My favorite film is Remember the Titans. The film is about a football team and their struggles with integrating an African American high school and a Caucasian high school. Taking place in Virginia in 1971, the film shows the racial tension of the community using techniques to make it cinematic. One of the ways that allows the viewer to understand the tension in the movie is with camera angles. The director, Boaz Yakin, uses multiple camera angles to show both segregation and also unity of the…

Managers need to cultivate certain skills to be effective and sports teams are not different. Take for example this 58 seconds short scene, (based on a true story), where Coach Boone introduces himself in an aggressive manner. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=megNGAc9_i8 It isn’t until we watch the rest of the movie that we begin to understand the reason for his initial approach. Imagine an African American hired to run an integrated team during a time of racial tension. He established clear…

Remember the Titans (September 2000) is a movie that will forever be known as a great. It’s not just a basic movie about football, it’s much more than that. It’s a movie that proves that even though times get rough, it’s possible to overcome it. This movie shows various forms of sociological issues in Alexandria. Discrimination is very evident throughout the entire movie. The white community does not want anything to do with the black community nor do they want to be around them. They do…

The movie focuses on African American coach Herman Boone and the difficulties of leading a football team comprising of members of both races.…

But, the way both movies portray the racism is completely different. Characters, symbolic moments and the main idea are what will be the focus. These three topics will explain how race discrimination was back then…
