Sickening

Speaking of "Sicko,'' as in the previous post, how's this for sickening?

"Pride,'' a truly fine movie, based on the actual story of a Philadelphia high school swim coach, grossed a pathetic $7 million at the box office.

Couldn't be a problem with the cast, full of stellar talent like Terrence Howard as the coach, plus Bernie Mac, Tom Arnold and good supporting players as the high school students.

Plus, it's an inspiring story: the coach broke down segregation barriers in the 1970s to get his black swimmers into citywide swim meets and they became champions.

"Pride'' arrives on the home viewing market June 26; do yourself a favor and watch it.
It's light years ahead of the bottom feeder movies made for (and exploiting) young viewers.
