INVICTUS(2009)

This was the probably one of the earliest shows I had in my computer, but no time to watch it. It's a story of the human spirit, overcoming difficulty, rugby and from the guy who did The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. 


Geez, I don't know what else to say about this show. It's not terrible (a la Beverly Hills Chihuahua) Neither it is fantastic for a tomatoes 100%, but I can say that this is a very awe-inspiring show. It inspires me to do better, and I've posted up Invictus on the page, where I will go look at it when I need it.


I particularly liked the last verse of the poem

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

It speaks of a resolution to a pause we take in our struggle, and yet reaffirms us of what we can do. Even though it is dark ahead, walk a little longer, the light awaits. 

A pick-me-up, of the unexpected kind.
