Richard Pimentel (Ron Livingston) begins his life as a fighter, and his life's work becomes a process of fighting for the rights of others. Rising up from a childhood in a dysfunctional family, armed with a talent for public speaking and a winning personality, the young man makes his way to a Northwestern college, confident that he will ace his try-out for his idol Dr. Ben Padrow (Hector Elizondo), the coach of the winningest team in the history of the College Bowl. But Dr. Padrow shatters his dream when he rejects him. Richard's immediate reaction is to enlist in the army for a tour of duty in Vietnam. During combat, the young recruit loses his hearing to a bomb blast, and has to deal with this newfound disability on his return to civilian life in Oregon.

Rises far above it's more maudlin scenes. As with the lives it portrays, it plays across a broad emotional landscape. The Music Within uses humor to great effect to leaven what could in lesser hands have been turned into a depressing, and preachy mess. Wonderful, uplifting story about the difference one person can make. One of my favorites.

The man who was turned down as speech maker until he had more than enough to speak about. Going thru red tape for help on his war injury,he found his calling helping all disabled while making speeches for disabled, he became G.H.W.Bush's and fortune 500 speakers in favor of passing the nations disability laws.
