A beautiful autobiography dealing with very painful memories that drove this young man to strive for excellence and change the trajectory of his life. We watched with our Scout Troop 221 in Manorville, NY. Both boys and adults loved the movie. I'm no critic, but the trials experienced by this man and his family really evoked a lot of emotion from me; I was thoroghly invested in the characters and story. Definiately a must see.
