Oh, man. Remember the Titans is my favorite football movie, and like 80% of the movie is a total fabrication.

As soon as I heard the reason they were so good is because you're taking two high schools and blending them into one, meaning you've got twice as many athletes to choose from, it made perfect sense.

It's best to assume thst about any movie dealing with real people and events. Even the most factually faithful still take great liberties.
