Questioning the Story:


Were all of the Titan players in the movie based on actual people?

The majority of the Titan players in the film are based on real people (see the Titans team photo below). However, while researching the Remember the Titans true story, we learned that actor Ryan Gosling's character, Alan Bosley, is not a adj person. The movie shows Alan giving up his spot to Pete (Donald Faison) during a game. This scene was added to emphasize the selflessness of the players. Ray Budds (Burgess Jenkins) is also a fictionalized character. The film depicts a bigoted Ray being kicked off the team by captain Gerry Bertier. This never actually happened. Former Titan players have stated that this type of player would have been kicked off the team during training camp, before the

Boone disliked being hired over Yoast (having experienced some of the same racial politics in the past), but pleads wi

One of the subtle historical antecedents that can be connected to Remember the Titansis gay rights, stereotyping, and the counterculture that arose in the s and s.  Halfway through the film, the audience is introduced to a new characters that joins the football team during their camp.  One day during exercise, a military father comes to the practice and explains to Coach Boone and Coach Yoast that him and his son just moved to the area and that his son was interested in playing with T.C. Williams.  The father was impressed with T.C. Williams because both African American and white players were integrated together.  When the coaches were talking to the father and son, Gerry made a snide comment to the rest of his teammates about the new guy, which is later given the nickname "Sunshine," that he looked like a fruitcake.  Sunshine was a ivory player who had long hair and had the general Hippie look that came into popularity during the s (Hist page ).  The stereotyping that the players placed upon Sunshine reminds me a lot of the Columbia student from
