Football season is in full swing, baby! As someone who grew up with sports but never truly played one, I can wholeheartedly recommend adding Remember the Titans to your fall watchlist. The Disney film from 2000 tells the true story of a newly-integrated Virginian high school football team in the early 1970s as they learn to put race aside and work with each other as well as their new head coach, played by Denzel Washington, toward the one ultimate goal: a season championship. Remember the Titans — which will have you laughing and singing one minute and crying the next — is a movie that brings together sports fanatics and those like myself, who get excited for game days solely for the food.
