The link will be a 'spoiler', should you not like to know the plot of the film.

But...if you want to know what makes American's, American's and America, America, this film is a good primer.

'Taking Chance' chronicles one of the silent, virtually unseen journeys that takes place every day across the country, bearing witness to the fallen and all those who, literally and figuratively, carry them home. A uniquely non-political film about the war in Iraq, the film pays tribute to all of the men and women who have given their lives in military service as well as their families.

I've seen it. It's very well done in a non partisan manner. Kevin Bacon is excellent.

I think every person that bad mouths our troops should watch this movie. Yes, there are people who bad mouth the troops......

Thank you, Wildcard, I agree. It was a very emotional film, to me at least and yes, Bacon did an excellent job.

I think it says something very, very important, that is often overlooked or passed by when it comes to understanding just what kind of people Americans really are.
