Message: [QUOTE="nwhoopfan, post: 2679631, member: 7894"] My dad recommended "Life of a King" to me quite a while ago. Finally got around to watching it. Starring Cuba Gooding, Jr. (he's kinda been marginalized in Hollywood, but the dude can act!). Really good movie. Gooding's character is just released after a 17 year stint in prison. Estranged from his 2 kids. Having some difficulty finding his way in life. Ends up starting a chess club at the local high school, the kind of school where most kids have no interest in chess. He becomes a very positive influence in their lives, trying to help them avoid making the mistakes he made as a young man. Based on a true story. Very well done. [/QUOTE]
