'''''Remember the Titans''''' is a [[2000 in film|2000]] [[Cinema of the United States|American]] [[list of sports films|sports]] [[drama film|drama]] directed by [[Boaz Yakin]], and produced by [[Jerry Bruckheimer]] for [[Walt Disney Pictures]]. The film stars [[Denzel Washington]] as Coach [[Herman Boone]]. ''Remember the Titans'' centers on the [[American football|football team]] of the newly [[desegregation|integrated]] [[T. C. Williams High School]] in [[Alexandria, Virginia]]. The critical and commercial success of the movie led to Disney producing many other sports films.


=== October 13 ===
== Plot ==
The film is based on true events and takes place in [[Alexandria, Virginia]], in 1971, at brand new desegregated [[T.C. Williams High School]]. [[Herman Boone]] ([[Denzel Washington]]) is hired as head coach for the school's football team, taking the place promised to former head coach [[Bill Yoast]] ([[Will Patton]]). Yoast at first refuses Boone's offer of a position as assistant head coach, but then changes his mind. The black and white members of the football team clash in racially-motivated conflicts on a few occasions throughout their time at football camp, but after forceful coaxing and team building efforts by Coach Boone, the team manages to achieve some form of unity, as well as success. Boone makes the camp quite rigorous; the bus leaving for the camp at the beginning is to depart at precisely 7:29 am and all members are instructed to wear a shirt and tie; anyone not doing so will watch the season and not compete. At the camp, anybody who displays any sort of misconduct at practice is instructed to run a mile, and along the route passing through Civil War gravestones.

The main conflict is taken to a personal level by the portrayal of the conflict between [[Gerry Bertier]] ([[Ryan Hurst]]) and Julius Campbell ([[Wood Harris]]), two players of equally outstanding athletic ability, but different ethnic backgrounds, who at first can't stand one another but eventually become sworn brothers (the turning point of their relationship becomes a focal point for the team in its racially divided ways giving way to true unity). Upon return from camp to school, the team runs through its regular season competition undefeated while battling the racial prejudice that was then typical of, though not exclusive to, the [[American South]].
==== Category:Alter egos ====
==== Category:Pseudonyms ====
:[[:Category:Alter egos]]
:[[:Category:Pseudonyms]]
I'll say up front that technically the latter cat is more a case of needing cleanup than deletion. Per the intorduction note: ''"Note: This category should not be used for those who merely use a pseudonym, but rather for articles about pseudonyms."''


All American player [[Gerry Bertier]] is [[Paraplegia|paralyzed]] in an automobile accident while celebrating one of the later team's victories. Although Bertier is no longer able to play, the team goes on to win the championship, setting an example for the town in the process. The football team wins the AAA State championship game in [[Roanoke]], and is first runner up in the national championship. Bertier later goes on to win a gold medal in the shotput event at the [[Paralympic Games]]. Ten years later, the team reunites at the end of the film to attend Bertier's funeral, after he was killed in another auto accident.
Well, it seems that that hasn't been followed. Both categories are filled with "examples". The problem, of course, is: pseudonyms or alter egos of whom?


== Music and soundtrack ==
So these (at least) need to be depopulated of all examples. (Persons who have used pseudonyms.)


''Remember the Titans'' used many 1960s and early 1970s popular songs like [[Steam (band)|Steam]]'s "[[Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye]]", Marvin Gaye's & Tammi Tarrell's "[[Ain't No Mountain High Enough]]", Sly And The Family Stone's "[[I Want to Take You Higher|I Want To Take You Higher]]", and [[James Taylor]]'s "[[Fire and Rain]]" on its soundtrack. [[Eric Burdon]] and [[War (band)|War]]'s song "[[Spill The Wine]]" was also used briefly.
That said, if cleaned up, [[:Category:Alter egos]] would have 3 members (besides the pseudonym subcat): [[Alter ego]], [[Author surrogate]], and [[Mary Sue]]. [[Alter ego]] is already a member of the parent [[:Category:Self]], and the other two could be easily upmerged. (They are all already cross-linked.) - [[User:Jc37|jc37]] 11:37, 13 October 2008 (UTC)


[[Trevor Rabin]] composed the instrumental score, of which "Titan's Spirit" was the only cue (of 12 composed) added to the soundtrack. "Titan's Spirit" was a rousing seven-minute exploration of the movie's energetic themes. It is used presently on many sports telecasts, particularly those on [[NBC]], which has used the score during its [[closing credits]] montage for the last four [[Olympic Games]] ([[2002 Winter Olympics|Salt Lake 2002]], [[2004 Summer Olympics|Athens 2004]], [[2006 Winter Olympics|Torino 2006]] and [[2008 Summer Olympics|Beijing 2008]]) as well as with the final closing credits montage for their 12-year run with the [[NBA on NBC|NBA]] in 2002. It was also used by the event's organizers to accompany the celebration and fireworks at [[Invesco Field]] at the end of the [[2008 Democratic National Convention]] after [[Barack Obama]] had given his acceptance speech, and as veteran [[New York Mets]] players crossed home plate during the closing ceremonies at [[Shea Stadium]].

''[[BET Awards]]''
*'''Redefine and repopulate''' Not a typical CfD comment, but the description in this category of Crypto-Jews is at at odds with the more traditional description of groups such as [[Marrano]]s at [[Crypto-Judaism]], in which Jews retained their faith even after ostensibly converting; this category describes the opposite. I'd like to see better sourcing, but there are already several Famous Crypto-Jews listed in the Crypto-Judaism article -- [[Christopher Columbus]] is often said to be one of them -- and those who meet that standard with appropriate sources should be listed here. There might well be a category justified for forced converts who did not retain their faith, as this category currently describes, which should be associated with a proper parent article and recreated.

:'''Comment''' - I also wasn't really sure what the category was supposed to be (Jewish folk who hang out in crypts and mausoleums?, Jews who work on cryptography?), and while some categories are a bit esoteric (MILF, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/List_of_fictional_characters_who_wear_fingerless_gloves Fingerless Glove Wearers] - which was deleted as listcruft), I think that Jews who had to hide their non-goyim-ness to get by is a historical phenomenon which deserves some note. Lots of citation are going to be required, though, not just some ass-clown with a new theory of who's a "former" Jew. - [[User:Arcayne|<span style="color:black">'''Arcayne'''</span>]] [[User talk:Arcayne|<small><span style="color:gray">(<sup>'''cast a spell'''</sup>)</span></small>]] 15:05, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

**Won- Theatrical - Best Actor-([[Denzel Washington]])
:'''Nominator's rationale:''' A "controversy" category such as this is completely subjective. Inclusion can only be based on the POV of the editor that adds the category, not objective criteria.

*'''Keep''' This is a well-defined subcategory of [[:Category:Political controversies]], which includes nearly 100 such subcategories.

[[User:Alansohn|Alansohn]] ([[User talk:Alansohn|talk]]) 01:46, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
*'''Upmerge''' as appropriate to the candidate's eponymous category. Contra the above comment, there are actually just ten subcategories directly within [[:Category:Political controversies]], not 100, and even counting those nested within deeper levels, there are only eight person-specific "John Foo controversies" categories: four for U.S. presidents, and the other four for candidates in the current U.S. presidential election (Obama, McCain, Palin, and McCain-Palin jointly). I've always hated the word "controversy" as it's often applied on Wikipedia there is not actually a documented controversy, but rather just something that someone may think is grounds for criticism. But I know I'm not going to get a lot of support for doing away with that word entirely. They are obviously being used to include not just articles that are about such "controversies" specifically (such as [[Jeremiah Wright controversy]], but rather articles that merely relate to such controversies (such as [[John Hagee]]). If kept, they should be limited to the latter, but it doesn't appear that there are enough of those to justify keeping. But if there's not an easy consensus to merge or delete these at this time, the issue should just be taken up again after the U.S. presidential election has occurred rather than debated ad nauseum at this time. These categories may just reflect presentist bias; whether there's a need for them will only become more clear over time after the election has passed, when passions have cooled and historical perspective is more established.

Remember the Titans is a 2000 American sports drama directed by Boaz Yakin, and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer for Walt Disney Pictures. The film stars Denzel Washington as Coach Herman Boone. Remember the Titans centers on the football team of the newly integrated T. C. Williams High School in Alexandria, Virginia. The critical and commercial success of the movie led to Disney producing many other sports films.

Plot

The film is based on true events and takes place in Alexandria, Virginia, in 1971, at brand new desegregated T.C. Williams High School. Herman Boone (Denzel Washington) is hired as head coach for the school's football team, taking the place promised to former head coach Bill Yoast (Will Patton). Yoast at first refuses Boone's offer of a position as assistant head coach, but then changes his mind. The black and white members of the football team clash in racially-motivated conflicts on a few occasions throughout their time at football camp, but after forceful coaxing and team building efforts by Coach Boone, the team manages to achieve some form of unity, as well as success. Boone makes the camp quite rigorous; the bus leaving for the camp at the beginning is to depart at precisely 7:29 am and all members are instructed to wear a shirt and tie; anyone not doing so will watch the season and not compete. At the camp, anybody who displays any sort of misconduct at practice is instructed to run a mile, and along the route passing through Civil War gravestones.

The main conflict is taken to a personal level by the portrayal of the conflict between Gerry Bertier (Ryan Hurst) and Julius Campbell (Wood Harris), two players of equally outstanding athletic ability, but different ethnic backgrounds, who at first can't stand one another but eventually become sworn brothers (the turning point of their relationship becomes a focal point for the team in its racially divided ways giving way to true unity). Upon return from camp to school, the team runs through its regular season competition undefeated while battling the racial prejudice that was then typical of, though not exclusive to, the American South.

All American player Gerry Bertier is paralyzed in an automobile accident while celebrating one of the later team's victories. Although Bertier is no longer able to play, the team goes on to win the championship, setting an example for the town in the process. The football team wins the AAA State championship game in Roanoke, and is first runner up in the national championship. Bertier later goes on to win a gold medal in the shotput event at the Paralympic Games. Ten years later, the team reunites at the end of the film to attend Bertier's funeral, after he was killed in another auto accident.

Music and soundtrack

Remember the Titans used many 1960s and early 1970s popular songs like Steam's "Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye", Marvin Gaye's & Tammi Tarrell's "Ain't No Mountain High Enough", Sly And The Family Stone's "I Want To Take You Higher", and James Taylor's "Fire and Rain" on its soundtrack. Eric Burdon and War's song "Spill The Wine" was also used briefly.

Trevor Rabin composed the instrumental score, of which "Titan's Spirit" was the only cue (of 12 composed) added to the soundtrack. "Titan's Spirit" was a rousing seven-minute exploration of the movie's energetic themes. It is used presently on many sports telecasts, particularly those on NBC, which has used the score during its closing credits montage for the last four Olympic Games (Salt Lake 2002, Athens 2004, Torino 2006 and Beijing 2008) as well as with the final closing credits montage for their 12-year run with the NBA in 2002. It was also used by the event's organizers to accompany the celebration and fireworks at Invesco Field at the end of the 2008 Democratic National Convention after Barack Obama had given his acceptance speech, and as veteran New York Mets players crossed home plate during the closing ceremonies at Shea Stadium.

Locations

Several locations around metro Atlanta were used for filming. This included Druid Hills High School, Shamrock Middle School, Paulding County High School[1], the city square in Covington, GA, Newton County's Sharp Stadium, Oglethorpe University in Atlanta, and the stadiums of Sprayberry High School in Marietta and Etowah High School in Woodstock Georgia. Also used was Berry College in Rome, Georgia. The football practice field of Clanerrrrr your mom!rkston High School and Victory Stadium in Roanoke, Virginia were also used.

The Perry High School Pride of the Crossroads Band from Perry, Georgia, played the T.C. Williams High School band.
