Overcomer

Name: Overcomer scores 68 — Live Historic
Item: Overcomer
Rating: 68
Author: Live Historic

68Worth an evening.

Identity as a gift, not a mood. Earnest again, and aimed at a girl who needs a name.

Pass it on

The review

The coach wants a big team and is given one girl and a different sport. That humiliation is the useful part. The girl is stealing to get by and does not know the man who left. The film tells her who she is in Christ with a directness that will embarrass anyone who prefers the theme to stay symbolic. Symbolic was not going to help her.

A family can watch it. Say that a real absent father is not resolved in one meet. Then keep the assignment: a girl needs adults who stay, and she needs a name for herself that a missing parent does not get to write. If you coach, teach, or neighbor a child like that, you already have the job the film is advertising.

The glance

Republic is the thin one.

Does anyone owe a neighbor, a law, or a town — or is every person out for themselves?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

The eight

7
Industry
Coaching one runner is still a craft. He has to learn a sport he did not choose.
8
Household
A fatherless girl, a coach who has to decide if he will be present, a family of his own.
8
Piety
The question of who she is gets a Christian answer, said in the open.
6
Courage
She runs anyway. He stays in a job that shrank.
4
Republic
A school. The public is the meet.
8
Temperance
Training as restraint. Little glamour.
6
Truth
The revelation is tidy. The need it answers is not tidy in life.
7
Stewardship
What he hands her is a practice and a name that is not the absence of her father.

Battleground

68Worth an evening.

A squad in the snow, nobody famous, and it felt closer to the war than the speeches.

Pass it on

The review

Snow, a replacement, and a man who wants to go home. That is the size of the story. The Battle of the Bulge, from a squad. The work is staying in a line. The heroes are not famous. It was made soon after the war by people who knew the cold. Older teens. Leave the wounds alone.

I recognized the fellow who wants his own kitchen more than he wants to be brave. The film does not mock him, and it does not let that want dissolve the line. Nobody rides in from headquarters to be the point. Plenty of war pictures need a great man. This one leaves the cold, the squad, and the plain fact that going home was the thing they might miss.

Household is the thin one.

Is a marriage, a parent, or a child a real life here, or just a prop?

Consider this

The Best Years of Our Lives

76 instead of 68

The Best Years of Our Lives is still a war film, and it scores 76 instead of 68. What you gain is household: The banker's children have grown, and the bombardier's wife is now a stranger.
