The Express

Posted 02-10-2009 at 11:59 PM by SolidLightObject
Ernest Davis (December 14, 1939 – May 18, 1963) was an American football running back and the first African-American athlete to win the Heisman Trophy. Wearing number 44, Davis competed collegiately for Syracuse University before being drafted by the Washington Redskins, then almost immediately traded to the Cleveland Browns in December 1961. However, he would never play a professional game after developing leukemia in 1962. He is the subject of the 2008 Universal Pictures movie biography, The Express, based on the non-fiction book Ernie Davis: The Elmira Express, by Robert C. Gallagher.

I loved this movie. I am not one to wear my heart on my sleeve much, but I gotta admit, this movie moved me a ton.

I recommend it. Actually, let me put it this way,
I have only cried for 3 movies, this one included, along with Passion of the Christ.

Maybe it was my football background or something, but this movie was just TOO awesome.

Two thumbs WAY UP.
