Sinopsis(1)
El fútbol americano es uno de los grandes acontecimientos en Virginia, un estilo de vida, una institución que todos veneran y que prende sus raíces ya en los institutos. En 1971, cuando el proceso de integración racial obliga al consejo local a crear una sola escuela para blancos y negros, la esencia del fútbol americano se verá sometida a una prueba de fuego. Herman Boone llega desde Carolina del Sur para ocupar el primer puesto de entrenador de los T.C. Williams High "Titans", por encima de Bill Yoast, un entrenador con muchos años de antigüedad y una magnífica reputación. La prueba: ¿Dejarán que un negro suplante a un blanco al mando de un equipo de fútbol americano? Rivales en un principio, juntos tendrán una gran tarea que llevar a cabo, convertir a una pandilla de chicos agresivos y desorientados en adultos responsables y sensibles, y liberar a la ciudad de su intolerancia y prejuicios raciales.

I know that even at the turn of the millennium, racism was a topic, it will probably always be a topic. However, I still feel that Americans in around 2000 managed to put it in films in a more clever, more humane form than how they butcher films today. Memories of Titans is about American football. The viewer would think that if this sport means nothing to him, then the film will mean nothing to him either. The opposite is true, which is interesting in itself. The creators have created a nice story of a club where racism was a topic and so it opened up to be resolved. At the end of the film, you cheer for everyone who appears on the screen and it doesn't matter at all that the film is full of pathos and American patriotism. Everything just somehow fit here and turned out very well.

This high school version of Any Given Sunday is not only about what is happening, but also about moral value. There are winks and reading between the lines, fewer muscles, fewer sharp elbows, less hi-tech, but more integrity, family, and traditional values.
