Even if I were interested in the story, the narrative fragmenting is annoying.  This is based on the Grisham novel and directed by Gary Fleder, after Don't Say a Word and before The Express.

I watched twenty minutes of this, which is a lot for me and a sports drama, since I liked the scenes of Ernie growing up as a kid and dealing with prejudice.  But once they switched to his college years, and more football, I lost interest.  Gary Fleder directed, seven years after the much worse Don't Say a Word.  This movie is based on the Charles Leavitt book Ernie Davis: The Elmira Express.

Alternately boring and offensive, but then it does star Michael Douglas.  Based on the Andrew Klavan novel and directed by Gary Fleder.
