It was a good movie, but it was a lousy history.
For instance, the scrawled epithets on the wall of the motel never happened at all, anywhere, at any time. That's a dramatic device and nothing more. The racist behavior that you see in the movie didn't happen for the most part until after the championship season. That's when the hate mail started pouring in. And the hate was mostly in the form of mail, although it was also enlightening reading some of what was written in contemporary newspaper columns. |
