Heart of Invictus (2023)
Brilliant
Showing true grit and humanity. Phenomenal series. Really highlights veterans and the obstacles they face. Also shows the work and determination it takes to put the games together. It's about far more than Prince Harry. His leadership shows but the work of others is definitely Highlighted. I loved how athletes from around the world told their stories and showed their team mates. It's a very well done series. You can watch one or all of the episodes and get a true sense of the invictus games and everything behind them.
It's a testimony to Harry and Netflix to put this together and donate the funds to the games.
The Boys in the Band (2020)
Dated, exaggerated, conflicted
This did not need to be made.
It may be NYC in the 60s but no where else. It presents a very narrow portrayal of a very narrow population.
I found it vile, stereotypical and exaggerated.
I also thought only Tuc Watkins was believable. A play like this may have been ground breaking in 1968. We have moved on thankfully
