Writer turned director Brian Helgeland finally brought the incredible story of Jackie Robinson with this emotional drama. The story of Jackie Robinson and Branch Rickey who faced incredible obstacles and racism before they made history that turned Robinson into a legend. Helgeland finally managed to bring the long overdue story of an inspiring American legend who made history and changed a nation. While the film is a classic old-fashioned film, the story and characters are complex and real which gives the film resonance and context which remains relevant. Chadwick Boseman stars with a terrific performance that channels why Robinson was a legend along an equally terrific Harrison Ford as the mastermind who helped shaping history. The solid supporting cast includes Nicole Beharie, Christopher Meloni, Lucas Black and T.R. Knight. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
