Inspirational Rare Find

This movie was the telling of a story of a man dedicated to repairing broken bodies, broken mental/emotional minds and broken spirits. It is a movie that shows what offering hope can do to help heal the ravishes of devastation. It's hard to find a movie today that provides inspiration. Story tellers and movie makers today like the shock and awe effect, believing they have created "art" when in reality it's just another pathetic formula story. So my hat is off to the story tellers and actors of this movie. You made me feel good and to realize there are good people out there!

Best in Men

The will to survive is one thing - the will to keep going on, to really make the best of ones situation a completely different one. One can "live", but actually not really be "alive" for many reasons. And I don't even mean depression and other stuff like that.

This is an encouraging story about people who lost quite a lot (literally) during war time ... but were encouraged by a (jewish) doctor to bring new meaning to their lifes and give them new goals to achieve. Something to look forward to ... so quite inspiring story, with some things that may offend people, but considering the mind set the individuals were under ... and the stress and all that ... you should be able to understand and feel for them.

Zitate
[Sergeant Hills has been posted to the Spinal Unit]
Sergeant 'Q' Hills: I don't know anything about paralysis.
Dr. Ludwig Guttmann: You will learn. Become an expert.
Sergeant 'Q' Hills: I'm a PT Instructor, not Jesus Christ. I don't raise men from the dead. Sorry.
[Hills salutes and walks away]
Dr. Ludwig Guttmann: You are a soldier. This is your posting.
Sergeant 'Q' Hills: No. There's been some mistake.
Dr. Ludwig Guttmann: Of course. I should be Head of Neurosurgery in Breslau, while watching children playing in the Oder. My friends and family should be enjoying the autumn in Silesia. But "some mistake" happened and most of them are in SS camps while I am here with you. So we must make the best of it.
