Product Description

Product Description

For anyone who ever had a dream and everyone with the courage to stand up for what they believe, comes the real life story of Robert "Radio" Kennedy. Experience Radio's journey from a man no one understands to the coach no one could live without. Together with Head Coach Harold Jones, Radio inspired a football team to become champions and a town to open their hearts. Heroic performances from Academy Award Winner Cuba Gooding, Jr. and Academy Award Nominee Ed Harris will have you laughing, crying and cheering for the man who proved, the world's greatest victories happen in real life.

Amazon.com

Since winning an Academy Award for his exuberant performance in Jerry Maguire, Cuba Gooding Jr. has gotten little but static from critics for a spate of calamitous career choices not seen since '80s-vintage Burt Reynolds. But he triumphantly returns to Oscar-worthy status with his moving performance as Radio, a mentally challenged young man, whom South Carolina high school football coach Harold Jones (Ed Harris) takes under his nurturing wing. This does not play well with the school's patient but questioning principal (Alfre Woodard); the school's biggest athletic booster, who views Radio as a distraction; the man's son, the team's star player, who plays cruel pranks on the trusting Radio; and the Coach's teenage daughter, who feels neglected. Almost all will be won over by Radio's trusting and good nature. Based on a Sports Illustrated story, Radio was adapted for the screen by Mike Rich, screenwriter of The Rookie, and as in that superior family film, the heroics are mostly off the field. As Coach says, with all the subtlety of a blitz, "We're not the ones been teaching Radio; he's the one been teaching us." The ending, in which we see the actual Radio, still cheering his team on 26 years later, will melt the most cynical hearts. --Donald Liebenson

4.0 out of 5 stars Inspired by a true story...
Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2023

As someone who greatly admires Cuba Gooding Jr., I must say his portrayal of "Radio" is nothing short of impeccable. Set in the late 1970s, "Radio" is young man who, as his mother delicately puts it, "is a little slower than most." He spends his days wandering about, pushing a shopping cart from Piggly Wiggly and largely keeping to himself. His daily routine includes watching the local high school football team practice from a distance.

The movie takes a dramatic turn when some of the football players, in the absence of their coach, mistreat Radio by confining him in a shed and terrifying him with a barrage of footballs against the walls. Coach Jones, visibly shaken by the players' actions, decides to take Radio under his wing. Initially an enigmatic supporter from the outskirts, Radio gradually becomes an integral part of the team's dynamics, uplifting the morale of not just the players but the entire school community.

It becomes evident that Coach Jones genuinely cares for him, developing a paternal affection that sharply contrasts with his own complicated relationship with his daughter. After football season, Radio's inclusion extends to the classroom, a transition that meets with some resistance.

Without revealing too much, let's just say the film culminates in a heartwarming climax. "Radio" is a compelling narrative about the transformative power of friendship, the essence of kindness, and the enduring spirit of perseverance.

Reviewed in Germany on September 7, 2009

Dieser Film nach einer wahren Begebenheit ist Gefühlskino vom Feinsten. Von der ersten Minute an schließt man James Robert "Radio" Kennedy ins Herz, leidet und freut sich mit ihm. Als er dann kurze Zeit später Coach Harold Jones kennenlernt, schließt man auch diesen sympathischen Menschen sofort ins Herz. Wie dieser Mann sich für Radio einsetzt, ihm hilft und immer für ihn da ist, berührt und beeindruckt zutiefst.

Natürlich ist auch Bonusmaterial vorhanden und wie es sich bei Filmen nach wahrer Begebenheit gehört, lernt man auch den echten James Robert "Radio" Kennedy sowie Coach Harold Jones kennen. Die beiden verbindet übrigens eine tiefe Freundschaft, die wohl bis an ihr Lebensende Bestand haben wird.
Zu den Darstellern: Cuba Gooding Jr. (als "Radio") liefert meiner Meinung nach seine bisher beste schauspielerische Leistung ab. Ed Harris (als Coach Harold Jones) spielt so, wie man es von ihm gewöhnt ist: hervorragend. Ich halte ihn ohnehin für einen der besten Charakterdarsteller. Für mich gehört er auf eine Stufe mit Schauspielergrößen wie Dustin Hoffman, Gene Hackman, Morgan Freeman, Donald Sutherland, Jack Nicholson, Robert Duvall und Robert DeNiro. Auch alle anderen Darsteller liefern starke Leistungen ab, allen voran die junge Sarah Drew (als Mary Helen Jones).

Mein Fazit: "Sie nennen ihn Radio" ist ein lehrreicher Film, der einen sehr nachdenklich stimmt; Er führt einem vor Augen, dass in unserer Gesellschaft noch immer behinderte Menschen aufgrund ihres andersartigen Aussehens oder Verhaltens misshandelt, verletzt, beleidigt, gedemütigt oder geschlagen werden.
Er zeigt aber auch, vor allem in Person von Coach Jones, wie man mit behinderten Menschen umgehen sollte: respektvoll, rücksichtsvoll und verständnisvoll.
