Champion-The Movie
Champion is not like the normal movies I watch. If it were not
for my friend inviting me to come see it, I probably would have overlooked this
movie all together. No CGI, no special effects, no blood & gore. However,
it had something more. Something from the heart.
Shot in Georgia, Champion follows a racetrack driver and how his
life interconnects with others. The main focus of the movie is FORGIVENESS.
Everyone makes mistakes. Life is about choices. But your life does not have to
be tied to that one action. You can rise above it. You can forgive and BE
forgiven.
Forgiveness comes in all sorts of ways. Time helps. However,
sometimes it takes more. In Champion, we learn that forgiveness is not just for
the person that harmed you. But to forgive someone, frees yourself.
Life is too short to hold grudges, to live with regret, and to
keep bitterness in your heart.
I had a depressing morning and I cried through much of the film.
Very few movies can touch one's soul, but Champion does. It was brilliantly
written and had wonderful actors, such as my friend’s son Liam Peeples. .
Take a leap of faith, and go see this movie.
