A couple of years ago I wiped away the tears from my face after confirming that I had cancer and got in my car and listened to this and was ready to fight and won
First time I heard this speech I thought it was a motivational football speech. Now years later after losing 2 sons, my ex wife leaving me and almost dying from a ruptured appendix, man does this hit different. When I lost both of my sons 8 years apart, I just wanted to roll up and die. I am thankful that I kept waking up each day scratching and clawing for the next inch.
Keep pushing. Those inches will add up and you will be victorious. I have not experienced your pain or know the pain you have endured but your willingness to claw and fight is an inspiration and I do not even know you. Your sons are looking at you continuing to go after that "inch" every day. God bless
Most think football since WWII has turned into contraband sport that was predicted to last 50 years b4 the next war. Its tactical, ballistic, awesomness. 13 year center here.

This speech enabled me to battle a huge drug problem and I'm still fighting for that inch. Listen to it all the time. It's given me the willpower and the fight back. Forever grateful. UPDATE....still clean, still fighting and HUGELY grateful for the positivity and good wishes shown to me....there ARE good people out there!

Come back to this. Battled depression after loosing my mom, marriage and job feeling like a losing battle. But I’m still here, 2024, loving my job again, and loving life and my wife again. That’s what living is!
It was WAY too complicated a speech for them as it was. Most of them probably thought: I have to make that inch or the coach will kill me. But what about all the rest of the inches? Nah, he didn't say anything about that. Yeah!!! I'm gonna go on the field, run an inch and I'm good.
The story is that Pacino had to do the speech twice because the first time all these actors and athletes were supposed to respond but they just sat there mesmerized by Al’s performance
I’m a first generation college student. During my time in college, I had to spend nearly 40 hours a week just to complete the lab section for a class called microprocessor applications. I spent so much time working on this one course, I was failing my other classes and had to stop dating the girl I was with, and I was still barely passing microprocessors. Never in my life have I ever felt so depressed and lonely. I would watch this video everyday and cry almost my entire junior year. Today I graduated with my degree, and I’m watching this video with tears of joy. I’ll never forget the sacrifices I had to make to succeed in doing this degree and I’ll never forget the motivation this speech gave me when times were tough.
More importantly, you have built grit, resilience and an ability to not give up when it’s hard. And that’s what’s life is, facing it head on and planting your feet.
He certainty delivered this very well. Though props must also go to the scriptwriter. But Pacino May have added his own words to this- that’s the mark of a great actor.
I just lost my job and I came Here for a little motivation, it’s hard when you get knocked down, but the measure of any person is how we respond. This speech always picks me back up, I hope it does to anybody else seeing it
Certain quotes and speeches do that. I like what Bruce Willis says in 12 monkeys. The movie doesn't change. You do Anyway, that statement hits harder now that I am older and stuff is starting to get taken from me
1999 was such a strong year for film in general with this film, Green Mile, Entrapment, Matrix, Sixth Sense, Blue Streak and many other great films that came out that year.
Oliver Stone delving into Football. He always makes movies about his passions or interests. All star cast too. I really liked Draft Day as well, thought Kevin Costner did well in that. Another good football movie.
A bit of the point. Youth Sports is about teaching kids to become proper adults, it's a (mostly) safe way to face adversity, learn to work together, improve yourself, be responsible, be accountable, learn to follow, learn to lead. Extend that out, because it all became a business and along the way the Wins became more important than the Growth... so not everyone that makes it to the NFL got the life coaching aspects of Sports. Sports is a way to represent life, to prepare us for our Adulthood. So really, Sports is about life... it's a simulation of life. Sports lessons are Life lessons.

" i made every wrong choice a middle-aged man can make i uh. . i pissed away all my money believe it or not i chased off anyone who's ever loved me and lately i cant even stand the face i see in the mirror" that part got me
Damn what a speech. I have watched it over a 100 times but it still gives me the chils. Life is soo hard sometimes that you can't even make yourself get up from bed, that you can't stand the person in the mirror. This year for me was the hardest in my life. Huge problems with my girlfriend, broke my jaw, stop working out, really lost the point of living and any sense of direction. I think its time to take the advice and fight for every inch, fight for every minute and finally dare to try. Maybe we don't have the time we think we have and i don't want to die and regret for all the things i didn't do. If you are reading this and you go through hard times, i am with you brother, keep trying because that's what living is!

I was 15 years old when my older brother died, 26 years old when my younger brother died, 33 years old now and my mum has just past away. I have no family left, it's just me left. I am currently walking around the house listening to this epic speech trying my best to not give up on everything.
Please do not ever give up, you can do this hard as it may be. I would be your friend regardless of anything else if you ever need someone to talk to, I’m basically your age & understand how difficult life can be
I listen to it everyday....I haphazardly lost my job didn't get fired walked out took a risk didn't work....I struggle everyday and I'll never ever quit and you won't either!
Just like in the movie bro. He says look at the guy next to you and you’ll see someone that’ll go that inch with you. I’ll go that inch. Chin up. Let’s get going. Inch by inch.

I listen to this speech everyday, and also when life is hard. Life is a game of inches. I can only succeed by getting it right, the one thing that is happening right now. I focus on that single thing. I work one step at a time. It's impossible to finish a ten mile hike if on the way out of the house I step on a rock that causes me to stumble. By getting one thing right, over time, momentum is created.
It's actually definitely still possible after that :) "It's impossible to finish a ten-mile hike if on the way out of the house I step on a rock that causes me to stumble."
Modi43 Yes that is true. But walking at any distance happens by each step landing the right way. Therefore, each step is important. Each step can propel me or can trigger a landmine. If I build a house of brick, if I skip where a brick should go, there is a gap in the structure. As weight is built, the gap makes the wall too weak. The wall starts to bow and sag, and when one wall collapses, the roof caves and everything's gone. So if I get today right, then tomorrow can be without recompence.
I played a few seasons of rugby in my early 20s and I watched this before every match. Those were the best days, no responsibilities, hanging out with friends every day, everything in front of me. I'm 38 now and this video takes me right back. I didn't know how good I had it. I'll never be that young man again

When I could not walk properly. I had to live everyday in pain, sleep thru pain. I truly found out who will go those inch with me to walk again with no aids. Thank you for those people like my fiance, my mom, my docs, my brother. My sister, My students my bff so many others people. And My family. I remember laying in a hospital bed. I had told my mom and my brother Thank you for being my legs for me. When I can not walk . When I was bed bound for months . They had told me ... no thank you for choosing and trusting our legs to guide. Enlighten you. We thank you for loving and choosing us for always being your family. I will always keep that special moment Clos to my heart. That's people who are willing to go to battle with you no matter. The outcome....THANK YOU
My Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag played this before our huge FA Cup final against Manchester City and I am so happy that our players fought for each other and won the cup by beating our rivals 2-1.
This speech helped me go from a high school dropout from the hood ,to a college graduate with my BSN From nursing school. Plus I graduated with honors after almost failing out. To all y’all fighting for that inch keep fighting , one inch at a time!!!
If you are a coach and you give this speech to your team, it doesn’t matter how terrible your team is you will win the game. This speech is the greatest

This speech means everything to me. I lost my dad last year, and when I think about him, I always revert back to the line where he says: “When you get old in life, things get taken from you. That’s part of life. But you only learn that, when you start losing stuff”. I made sure that instead of learning that when it happens, to never take anything for granted ever again. It helped me recover from setbacks quicker. It helped me battle back the tears and realise how true that statement is. Every single person on this earth faces grief and pain. It’s life. Just remember whatever you’re going through at that specific moment, someone you know has also went through it. And I’m sure that person would say the same thing that I will say: It will pass. Stay strong and use it as a springboard to better things.
Hope you did well today. ❤️. I am old and understand everything that the d speech talks about are True ❤️… living Life. So glad to know that someone who is young is listening to this understands the Message of the Speech. Life and Love ❤️
Watched this after I came of hospital from an overdose I’ve made a lot of mistakes love, work, general life choices Now I’m a year clean from drugs and life is on the up for rid of the toxic people in my life and becoming a healthy happy young man Life is brilliant fuck yeah

My dad is newly paralyzed from the neck down. We have been in the hospital for 4 months and after many hard fought battles, many personal sacrifices, I will finally be able to take him home! Let me tell you, early on in this, I did not know if I could do this. But my struggles are nothing compared to what he has endured. My dad is my hero and is the reason I am alive today. We will NEVER GIVE UP! The steeper the hill, the stronger we grow. While we may get the shit kicked out of us - There is nothing we can’t beat…no matter how turbulent the storm is, it will never be strong enough to blow us down.
I wish life was easy and you get everything you deserve if you're a good person but unfortunately doesn't work out like that. I'm sorry for your situation - I don't know you but I'm proud of your resolve. Whatever it takes , make him and the others around you proud. Rooting for you 🙏
listening to this now. 21years old, wasted my collegiate track and field career. Down bad. Needed this. Used to always listen to this and here i am back in 2022
Has a bad year in 2014. Very similar to your story. In 2022 I just bought a home in one of the nicest neighborhoods in my area. Have a wonderful wife that cooks me dinner. Don’t ever let anyone tell you can’t do something. Keep going, claw for that inch. Because when you add up those inches, that’s going to make the f*coin difference between living and dying.
This is by far one of the greatest motivational speeches I've ever heard. Especially the personal things that I have gone through in the last 5 years this shit reminds me of why I need to keep fighting for that inch.

One of the greatest movie monologues of all time. Pacino slips in the little things - like scratching his head at 1:33 - in his typically brilliant way. His cadence and volume add to a marvelously written speech. Good stuff.

It's funny my dad my whole life felt like he was giving me this speech! Now that he's gone I find myself giving the speech to guys that are younger than me! Crazy! I wish I listened more!
Always thought Pacino was good, but only after seeing him in that film, and giving that speech, did I realise just how good. One of the best combinations of dialogue and delivery in all of cinema imo

Been listening to this speech almost everyday for years....I suffer from bad depression and anxiety, ither mental health issues, sometimes I feel so alone and out of place and like I can’t understand the place I live in this world...many days I don’t want to be here anymore...but this speech and his voice have saved me every single time.... even him starting out with “I don’t know what to say really...” gives me chills I can’t describe....
Watching the fellow actors in this room, they all listen to Pacino as if the movie set has disappeared around them. Here’s a man speaking about the origins of his life’s success and hardships. The truth is a powerful motivator to connect one another.

i saw this one in a project management course and used this in a project kick off meeting. Very typical and legendary speech of one of the worlds greatest actors...

I have to admit, this speech hasn't helped me overcome any serious stresses or unforeseen conflicts in my life, the kinds folks below have shared. But this speech always reminds me that the little things in life can determine whether you win a club volleyball game, create a memorable Mother's Day meal, or earn 4/4 on a high school English assignment. Yes, the little details can so easily be overlooked, but if unchecked, they will add up and make all the difference between become elite instead of just very good, between wearing a gold medal around your neck not silver, or looking sharp at prom versus just mid. Most young people seem content with "mid"iocrity in many aspects of their lives, which is fine...I guess it's their choice. Thankfully, for those of us who do take care of the little things and strive for something more from ourselves, greatness awaits.
John Logan and Oliver Stone wrote the screenplay. You can hear Stone’s voice- trained and attuned to classical literature. When I see this I think of Antony’s speech in “Julius Caesar.” The self deprecation at the beginning and then then the emotional climax at the end. Very similar structurally, but adapted brilliantly to this story and executed to perfection by Pacino.
It’s that “Never say Die” mindset! Al’s delivery is perfect 👍🏼 When I first watched this I listened like I was a young team sports player, now I’m an older fart I can relate even more. Superb
When I was in high school football, my buddy Luigi, memorized this entire speech and gave it to us verbatim right before our conference playoff game. Now.. we lost, but im telling you he got us fired up
This is beautifully put together. Very well edited. Pacino is a God like he always is but I like how he gives us shots of the team every now and then. One of the best sports movies I've seen

Al Pacino is the greatest actor of all time. He made a football speech connect to all of our lives.
He's been my favorite actor since Scarface.
At the same time, it really makes one ponder his own mortality. "One half a step too early or too late"....
He certainty delivered this very well. Though props must also go to the scriptwriter. But Pacino May have added his own words to this- that’s the mark of a great actor.

Yeah, I haven't watched this scene in years and maaaan does it hit hard now!!!
@@biguglyduck540 Damn Right
Those words resonate with me more than any others
Almost there too.
" i made every wrong choice a middle-aged man can make i uh. . i pissed away all my money believe it or not i chased off anyone who's ever loved me and lately i cant even stand the face i see in the mirror" that part got me
Word. I think alot of us can relate to a specific time in our lives where we felt that.
The Gym Me too. I’m 44.
Damn.....that sure "hit home" with me too....
Ditto !
Home run..
Damn what a speech. I have watched it over a 100 times but it still gives me the chils. Life is soo hard sometimes that you can't even make yourself get up from bed, that you can't stand the person in the mirror. This year for me was the hardest in my life. Huge problems with my girlfriend, broke my jaw, stop working out, really lost the point of living and any sense of direction. I think its time to take the advice and fight for every inch, fight for every minute and finally dare to try. Maybe we don't have the time we think we have and i don't want to die and regret for all the things i didn't do. If you are reading this and you go through hard times, i am with you brother, keep trying because that's what living is!
ur having a break-through, not a break down!
Don't give up man
God bless you brother
Probably the greatest speech/monologues in a sports movie ...ever.
Correction: the best speech in any movie ever
the greatest speech/monologues in the cinema’s history
Billy Bob Thornton’s speech in Friday night lights is amazing too, and he improvised it when they were shooting
Remember the Titans or I'll pull every one of you...
Dennis Quaid said it took the Great Al Pacino just 1 take to do this great speech! He is awesome!
How did Al Pacino not win an Oscar for this speech? I mean damn, hits ya in the feels everytime.
Exactly. Show me a more moving speech /performance from that year

Because there is actually no Oscar for "best motivational speech" in a movie. There's best actor, but that entails the whole performance.
@@sifunmon Wasn't this the year Cider House Rules grabbed all the awards?
@@themaskedman221You are right. But because of this speech there should be a category for best speech.
I’ve played this over and over im 26 years old. Lost everything. Jesus please save me..
Bro I’m 26 years old too and I play this every fucking day. I feel to fucking old to make things right. But god is good. Let’s make that inch count
God won't do shit, save yourself.
I lost it all in my 40s it ain't gonna be easy but you can do it I'm sober with a girl I love and a full time job. Times get tough I was homeless for 4 months and found a way you can too. Praying for you brother ✊
Youre going to make it brother
I'm old, and this makes so much sense with the roads I travelled. I fought for that inch, and winning is literally that close. Keep fighting my friends.
God bless you bro.
There aren’t enough words to describe how powerful this speech is. This is definitely a true motivator here. It definitely help you heal immensely

I was 15 years old when my older brother died, 26 years old when my younger brother died, 33 years old now and my mum has just past away. I have no family left, it's just me left. I am currently walking around the house listening to this epic speech trying my best to not give up on everything.
Please do not ever give up, you can do this hard as it may be. I would be your friend regardless of anything else if you ever need someone to talk to, I’m basically your age & understand how difficult life can be
I listen to it everyday....I haphazardly lost my job didn't get fired walked out took a risk didn't work....I struggle everyday and I'll never ever quit and you won't either!
Just like in the movie bro. He says look at the guy next to you and you’ll see someone that’ll go that inch with you. I’ll go that inch. Chin up. Let’s get going. Inch by inch.
Hope you didn't give up and stayed the course. Life is tough, but can be amazing too. Reaching out with virtual embrace...
I hope you climbed out of hell brother.
"I don't know what to say really" Continues to deliver the most epic fucking speech ever known to mankind!!!!
Rotter Dam up there with Charlie Chaplin

@@lorenzozanotelli8410 why would it downgrade?
I cant stop laughing at this post Lol 😂😂😂
I listen to this speech everyday, and also when life is hard. Life is a game of inches. I can only succeed by getting it right, the one thing that is happening right now. I focus on that single thing. I work one step at a time. It's impossible to finish a ten mile hike if on the way out of the house I step on a rock that causes me to stumble. By getting one thing right, over time, momentum is created.
It's actually definitely still possible after that :) "It's impossible to finish a ten-mile hike if on the way out of the house I step on a rock that causes me to stumble."
Modi43 Yes that is true. But walking at any distance happens by each step landing the right way. Therefore, each step is important. Each step can propel me or can trigger a landmine. If I build a house of brick, if I skip where a brick should go, there is a gap in the structure. As weight is built, the gap makes the wall too weak. The wall starts to bow and sag, and when one wall collapses, the roof caves and everything's gone. So if I get today right, then tomorrow can be without recompence.
Your so very right. Good luck
@@gagegraika1675 Same to you boss!
Love it. Let's hear another quote please!
I played a few seasons of rugby in my early 20s and I watched this before every match. Those were the best days, no responsibilities, hanging out with friends every day, everything in front of me. I'm 38 now and this video takes me right back. I didn't know how good I had it. I'll never be that young man again
"I dunno what to say really" - gives the best speech of the whole history

Whoever wrote that speech deserves a hug!
Written by Oliver stone & John Logan!!
They deserve to go to heaven nevermind a hug.

Hell yeah

When I could not walk properly. I had to live everyday in pain, sleep thru pain. I truly found out who will go those inch with me to walk again with no aids. Thank you for those people like my fiance, my mom, my docs, my brother. My sister, My students my bff so many others people. And My family. I remember laying in a hospital bed. I had told my mom and my brother Thank you for being my legs for me. When I can not walk . When I was bed bound for months . They had told me ... no thank you for choosing and trusting our legs to guide. Enlighten you. We thank you for loving and choosing us for always being your family. I will always keep that special moment Clos to my heart. That's people who are willing to go to battle with you no matter. The outcome....THANK YOU
GOD BLESS🙏🙏❤️❤️
My Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag played this before our huge FA Cup final against Manchester City and I am so happy that our players fought for each other and won the cup by beating our rivals 2-1.
He didn’t do his own speech?
The most inspiring speech ever in a sports movie gives you goosebumps. Imagine a player listening to this before going out to play in the Super Bowl.
They will win the super bowl
This speech helped me go from a high school dropout from the hood ,to a college graduate with my BSN From nursing school. Plus I graduated with honors after almost failing out. To all y’all fighting for that inch keep fighting , one inch at a time!!!
Maybe some people already have said it to you, but good for you to change your focus, your life :) !
You definitely fought for those inches !
Username checks out! I'm happy for you :)
I LOVE a success story. So proud of you!

This speech helped me get through my testicle retrieval operation
Whoever wrote this speech for a movie. Really had something to say. This is a amazing speech.
This shit hits HARD no matter what you are going thru in life. Damn near in tears...
This was shown to me by my English Teacher before my GCSE exam. I am now showing this to my students next week. Thank you Mr Moffatt
If you are a coach and you give this speech to your team, it doesn’t matter how terrible your team is you will win the game. This speech is the greatest
The best fucking motivational speech of all time. Every time I rewatch this scene it gets me to the edge of tears. It's fucking beautiful.
If you haven’t played the sport of football you won’t understand the emotions involved in the sport

This speech means everything to me.
I lost my dad last year, and when I think about him, I always revert back to the line where he says:
“When you get old in life, things get taken from you. That’s part of life. But you only learn that, when you start losing stuff”.
I made sure that instead of learning that when it happens, to never take anything for granted ever again. It helped me recover from setbacks quicker. It helped me battle back the tears and realise how true that statement is. Every single person on this earth faces grief and pain. It’s life. Just remember whatever you’re going through at that specific moment, someone you know has also went through it. And I’m sure that person would say the same thing that I will say: It will pass. Stay strong and use it as a springboard to better things.
Weil Said Mister ! Well said 👍👌🙏🙏
Great response!
From the day one I was introduced to this movie and To this day, I come and watch this clip whenever I feel tired from work. What an actor.
I always watch this video before an important exam, today is one of those days
Hope you did well today. ❤️. I am old and understand everything that the d speech talks about are True ❤️… living Life. So glad to know that someone who is young is listening to this understands the Message of the Speech. Life and Love ❤️
@@jamesgannon6192I’m here watching it again, to start the year, to reinforce my goals for 2025
Watched this after I came of hospital from an overdose
I’ve made a lot of mistakes love, work, general life choices

Life is brilliant fuck yeah
2 lost marriages a 4 year old son killed by tragedy 2 stillborn sons. 3 daugters in care because of my dodgy health i dont look for sympathy just kindness and this motivates me to claw every inch t try and get out of this nightmare. Thanks al. Luv ya❤

My dad is newly paralyzed from the neck down. We have been in the hospital for 4 months and after many hard fought battles, many personal sacrifices, I will finally be able to take him home! Let me tell you, early on in this, I did not know if I could do this. But my struggles are nothing compared to what he has endured. My dad is my hero and is the reason I am alive today. We will NEVER GIVE UP! The steeper the hill, the stronger we grow. While we may get the shit kicked out of us - There is nothing we can’t beat…no matter how turbulent the storm is, it will never be strong enough to blow us down.
I wish life was easy and you get everything you deserve if you're a good person but unfortunately doesn't work out like that. I'm sorry for your situation - I don't know you but I'm proud of your resolve. Whatever it takes , make him and the others around you proud. Rooting for you 🙏
Very happy for you. Never give up and keep fighting for those inches!
listening to this now. 21years old, wasted my collegiate track and field career. Down bad. Needed this. Used to always listen to this and here i am back in 2022
Has a bad year in 2014. Very similar to your story. In 2022 I just bought a home in one of the nicest neighborhoods in my area. Have a wonderful wife that cooks me dinner. Don’t ever let anyone tell you can’t do something. Keep going, claw for that inch. Because when you add up those inches, that’s going to make the f*coin difference between living and dying.
Stay strong.
What happened? And how to prevent it? I'm a mom with a HS freshman breaking top 75 (overall) in out state. Now what?
The truth is, parents are winging it too. Any insight is appreciated.
*We Don't Have Enough Time in One Life to Make All the Mistakes Ourselves "
This is by far one of the greatest motivational speeches I've ever heard. Especially the personal things that I have gone through in the last 5 years this shit reminds me of why I need to keep fighting for that inch.
Keep fighting brother
Keep fighting...never lose hope
Don't give up bro

Crazy how similar this is to Jason Goldstrikers speech to Jon, truly an inspiration to us all ❤
The best motivational speech EVER!!! It brings me to tears EVERY time.
Seriously though! What a great speech.
One of the greatest movie monologues of all time. Pacino slips in the little things - like scratching his head at 1:33 - in his typically brilliant way. His cadence and volume add to a marvelously written speech. Good stuff.

This speech and the one he gave in 'Scent of a woman' just blows me away.
Best actor of all times
This really is one of the greatest motivational speeches I’ve ever heard. Comparing life to inches and making perfect sense.
Everyone of us needs to hear this speech every now and again- it keeps us battling on after let downs and all of us have let downs
I used to work in a brokerage in London, this formed am integral part of the induction process and it became a central part of my life
It's funny my dad my whole life felt like he was giving me this speech! Now that he's gone I find myself giving the speech to guys that are younger than me! Crazy! I wish I listened more!
Always thought Pacino was good, but only after seeing him in that film, and giving that speech, did I realise just how good. One of the best combinations of dialogue and delivery in all of cinema imo

I wake up and watch this everyday... best motivation ever... when you feel like quiting... tell yourself... Just one more day.
"Now, what are you gonna do" me standing up and tackling my dog.
No matter how many times you watch it….. when you start it over, it strikes a different chord within you
Been listening to this speech almost everyday for years....I suffer from bad depression and anxiety, ither mental health issues, sometimes I feel so alone and out of place and like I can’t understand the place I live in this world...many days I don’t want to be here anymore...but this speech and his voice have saved me every single time.... even him starting out with “I don’t know what to say really...” gives me chills I can’t describe....
This has been bringing tears of joy and power to me through various stages of my life, and will continue to do so.
You’re not alone brother.
Watching the fellow actors in this room, they all listen to Pacino as if the movie set has disappeared around them. Here’s a man speaking about the origins of his life’s success and hardships. The truth is a powerful motivator to connect one another.

He said when you get old in life things get taken from that’s part of life, but you only learn that when you start losing stuff
I have to admit, this speech hasn't helped me overcome any serious stresses or unforeseen conflicts in my life, the kinds folks below have shared. But this speech always reminds me that the little things in life can determine whether you win a club volleyball game, create a memorable Mother's Day meal, or earn 4/4 on a high school English assignment. Yes, the little details can so easily be overlooked, but if unchecked, they will add up and make all the difference between become elite instead of just very good, between wearing a gold medal around your neck not silver, or looking sharp at prom versus just mid. Most young people seem content with "mid"iocrity in many aspects of their lives, which is fine...I guess it's their choice. Thankfully, for those of us who do take care of the little things and strive for something more from ourselves, greatness awaits.
John Logan and Oliver Stone wrote the screenplay. You can hear Stone’s voice- trained and attuned to classical literature. When I see this I think of Antony’s speech in “Julius Caesar.” The self deprecation at the beginning and then then the emotional climax at the end. Very similar structurally, but adapted brilliantly to this story and executed to perfection by Pacino.
It’s that “Never say Die” mindset!
Al’s delivery is perfect 👍🏼
When I first watched this I listened like I was a young team sports player, now I’m an older fart I can relate even more. Superb
When I was in high school football, my buddy Luigi, memorized this entire speech and gave it to us verbatim right before our conference playoff game.
Now.. we lost, but im telling you he got us fired up
The fact that you have two of the most legit bad-asses in NFL history in the room (LT and Jim Brown) just makes this scene even more amazing.
This is beautifully put together. Very well edited. Pacino is a God like he always is but I like how he gives us shots of the team every now and then. One of the best sports movies I've seen
