19 Lies in Disney's "Remember the Titans"

We all know "Based on a True Story" films can vary in truthfulness, but Disney's "Remember the Titans" is a particularly insidious example...

But it’s not just that the movie is fake, it’s that the fake stuff is all cliche and contrived sap

That's tough. Rudy for a long time, but Invincible may be better.

Agreed. It’s also fictionalized sap marketed as a true story
