My Thoughts on “The Boys in the Boat”

By Lisaorchard @lisaorchard1

Hello everyone, I hope all is well with you, and I hope everyone had a Happy New Year. I’m back today after the holidays, and I must say I’m glad to get a breather. This weekend, I was able to sneak away and see a movie. I strongly recommend you see this movie, too. It’s based on a true story.

The film is title “The Boys in the Boat.” George Clooney directed it, and he did a great job. It’s the story of the USA crew team that went all the way to the Olympics in Berlin. Click the link below to show the trailer.

It showed the teams humble beginnings and their journey to the Olympics. The main character is Joe. His father deserted him when he was fourteen, and he managed to stay alive at get into college. The film showed his determination and grit. I don’t want to give you too many details and ruin it for you, but it’s an amazing feel-good story, and I found it motivating. It’s the perfect show to watch when you’re struggling with your own personal goals. I strongly recommend it.

How about you? Have you seen any good movies or series lately? Leave a comment! I’d love to hear from you.
