^ You two are missing the point, or maybe you'd rather not see a movie like this come out at all.
The movie will provide a framework. None of us other than jackie Robinson, the folks he crossed paths with, and God now what happened. This could have been made in 1960 and there would still be judges that said no, I remembered it this way.
So no gang, you, Hollywood, the history books, and the rest of the critics will never capture the truth, but you have to start somewhere. I'm placing my faith in Jackies daughter who is consulting from memory to assist in the making of the movie. I'd like to think her input would add to the historical truth the critics seek.
I will be happy to share my walk with you after my son and I watch it and provide feedback. I'm taking the historical tolerant approach going in to id the true merit of the film which should be shedding light on breaking down segregation in baseball and an athlete, a family, and a baseball teams experience in doing so.
Thank you Tide for the historical perspective. Please share where you learned your contribution from. My son and I would welcome the opportunity to learn more. Feel free to add Jetpilot. If it's historical authenticity you all seek. Gather around and share. This is where iron sharpens iron men!
Have a good week folks and looking forward to further data sharing.
