I’m an AMC A-List member, so the more I see, the more I get out of that monthly fee (can see up to 4 a week for $28 mo.).

Whether you know nothing about Clemente or everything, this is a really good film full of fantastic footage and stories. The best are those from regular Pittsburgh folk who had incredible interactions with him that’d never happen today. He no doubt would’ve had an amazing impact in what should’ve been the second half of his life.

I’ve posted on here in the past about how Jr was my next door neighbor for a number of years and the tremendous insight he gave on his father. Jr has mirrored his dad’s thoughts and ambitions. If you are in Pittsburgh this weekend, a lot of celebrations today on the Clemente bridge, tomorrow the movie is playing at PNC park and then of course the game on Monday.

He had so much care and compassion for his own people and Hispanic/Latino people in general. What a wonderful and much needed advocate he would have been if he had lived. I can't even immediately come up with the name of anybody from the last 50 years who fits that description. (I'm Canadian, so perhaps it's not as immediately apparent.)

Got to watch this on History Channel Tuesday night. Well worth anyone's time, IMO. The stories about locals he interacted with in Pittsburgh and Latin America are really interesting. Some terrific archival baseball footage as well.

Really enjoyed it!

I watched it and thought it was well done. I always enjoy vintage film footage that I haven't seen before.

Being a retired Marine, I was very happy to finally see a movie that reflected Clemente was in the Marine's - that somehow isn't very well known.

His legacy lives on. Semper Fi.
