اس مووی کے بارے میں

In 1946, Branch Rickey (Harrison Ford) put himself at the forefront of history when he signed Jackie Robinson (Chadwick Boseman) to the team, breaking Major League Baseball's infamous color line. Facing unabashed racism from every side, Robinson was forced to demonstrate tremendous courage and restraint by not reacting, instead letting his talent on the field do the talking—ultimately winning over fans and his teammates, silencing his critics, and paving the way for others to follow. In 1997, Major League Baseball retired the number 42 for all teams, making it the first number in sports to be universally retired.

I'm a bit of an Anglo baseball fan, more about the history and culture of the game and its influence on the USA than anything. I had read a lot about Jackie Robinson and love a movie so bought this on a whim. Its really good. Tells the story of one of the greats in a time of prejudice. Really enjoyed it and not one for baseball fans only.

The beginning of the fight against racism in sport. It's unbelievable how stupid some people are! !! You can fight for your country but cannot have the freedom you fought for!
