    In the end I was about to cry. I think all of us should be inspired by these words. Nothing else to say, this speech's awesome!

    The entire movie is very excellent - and clearly speaks to encouraging young people (and old people) to overcome stereo types they may have (in either direction).
    We don't purchase many films - just something to collect dust - but this is one we now own.
    If you've not seen it - please do - it's well it.

    This is my favorite movie of all time. . . Many don't understand why but it never fails at compelling me. . .

    I've seen movies in the same genre - "Dead Poet Society", "Dangerous Minds": "Good Will Hunting" [also by Gus Van Sant], "Monalisa Smile", etc... but this movie in my opinion.is the most inspiring, heartfelt, and a good example for the youth of today.

    I did cry. This is one of my favorite movies. I like basketball as well, and to find a basketball movie that is so inspiring is very heartwarming.

    I am a writer and I took a lot of inspiration from these words. I write fantasy and detective fiction, but what I use in the fantasy writings is the emotional and personal experiences if the mind to set the challenges that are faced in the novels. At present I am working on a series, and the problems faced are of great danger, and I try to use my emotional experiences and the human nature in these things, for evil, I try robust the things people are afraid of

    Sir Sean Connery is one of my favorite actors. My parents adored him. He's the ULTIMATE James Bond, the original.
    In my opinion, the best Gus Van Sant movie.

    Crawford could have saved face by simply saying "Mr Forrester has verified to this board that there was no plagiarism. Jamal excellent job, I underestimated your abilities, I consider this matter rectified and closed"

    I love this scene and its theme of family & friendship: 2 out of the 5 "F's" I favor. (Faith, food & fun are the others.)

    My interpretation of this great scene.
    Forester:
    Professor, may I read a few words?
    Professor:
    "ohhhhh, byeee all means!" (licking shoes of Forester, the professor is VERY impressed)
    Forester:
    (Forester is nonplussed(
    (Speach).Bla bla bla... etc. (this is not word-for-word, just paraphrasing)
    Professor:
    "Oh, my goodness! (said in a sort of sickening idol worshipping sort of way) The quality of your words! We should all aspire to write like that, it's nothing like the crap that Jamal Wallace writes..."
    Forester:
    Um, by the way, those were not my words... Jamal Wallace wrote them...
    (Room erupts in applause)
    Professor:
    Quiet please! Settle down! Shush shush shush!!!
