      Trying times? This was 1924, just after ww1, where 20 million men died horrible and savage deaths.

      @@JK-vc7ie, Fair enough and quite true. WW1 was suppose to be the war to end all wars. It was a horrific, devastating war. Was just relaying the beauty of the message. It helps for any time of struggle.

    Fantastic scene. Perfect scene. That final bit with Montague's teammates consoling him is heartbreaking.

    The closing scene of this movie always gets me. Everyone thought he was crazy for refusing to compete on a Sunday but he did it to honor God. Eric Liddel even in winning an Olympic gold medal saying he is nothing without God and He is so much more powerful. Great closing to a great movie.

    "To he that lacks strength he increaseth might." I've always taken this as meaning that if you are humble, and lack the obvious trappings of will, force, the need to win... if you are in a conventional sense, weak, or meek... you focus not on the outward trappings and obvious show of strength, but rather on the inner work of the soul... and increase in might. The strongest part of a house is the par you cant see, the foundation that holds up all the rest. So often the best leaders are the ones you don't even realise are setting the tone. On a day when they're not there, you feel their absence. But they often have the knack of letting others shine, while they themselves take little credit.

    My favourite verse; stuck in my heart whilst watching this film & appealed to my proud SCOTTISH Heritage. 1984 November--By God's grace, age 31, HE saved a wretch like me (John 3.3, 33-34)-

    Such an amazing movie!
    I've always wondered why they left out the line "Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall;" it would have been the perfect line to put over Aubrey falling.

      necause he didnt "utterly fall", the Establishment walks up to him at the end of this clip as if to say "steady on, old chum, its just a game and youve won already by means of the class you were born into"

    “Without God, there is no virtue, because there's no prompting of the conscience. Without God, we're mired in the material, that flat world that tells us only what the senses perceive. Without God, there is a coarsening of the society.
    And without God, democracy will not and cannot long endure. If we ever forget that we're one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under." -Ronald Reagan, Prayer Breakfast, 1984
