Coach Carter (6/9) Movie CLIP - Our Deepest Fear (2005) HD

[@kagomefan101]

“I want to say thank you. You saved my life.” Man, I got chills. Timo Cruz grew so much in this movie, and it proves here how important a strong father figure is in one’s life.

If you study to be a teacher its cuz you love kids and u care about there future. Just like a doctor there here to save lives as well. I ones told my teacher he saved my life cuz i was caught up in the streets. He bursts into tears that was my 7th grade teacher and he went to my graduation. Ones i got my bachelors he had already passed away but if it wasent for him i would be locked up or dead. So amen to all the teachers thats actually change there student's life i love all you teachers who are making a difference in kids lifes. I was a drug dealer until 8th grade i got accepted to early college for 9th grade and idk what to do but he guided this kid and told me to leave my friends behind there not always gonna there for you. I could have been shot or in jail but thanks to that teacher im a Attorney for big federal cases in texas 🙏 rip mr Saenz you will always be a father to me.

This speech is very powerful. I’m 29 years old and was re-watching this movie on Netflix. This message resonates with me deeply and I did not grasp/understand it in my teenage years when I saw this movie. For many years I have played down my personality, charm, goals, intellect for acceptance. I’ve reached points in my professional life where lack of development in my personal life has held me back. The joy and shine we all carry derives from happiness; how you make other people feel around you. Finding peace and letting go of the hate we learned in the hood is not an easy task. In my earlier 20s I could argue that ‘hate’ is what fueled me to keep developing myself. Loving oneself and becoming the best version of yourself is a task more easily said than done. I yearn to be happy and the best version of myself.

[@Freethinker_94]

👏

[@billybobthorton2852]

I would say that the joy and shine we all carry derives from us being made in the image of God and that we carry the same spirit that rose Jesus from the dead within us. At some point we all confront evil and malevolence, within ourselves because we are born with sin, but also within our family and community. This life is a spiritual battle, Jesus calls us to be a light on a hill for all to see, giving God the glory for everything, meanwhile satan tries to smother our light and devour us.

I have always loved this scene & seen it more times than I would like to admit. Saw this movie back in theaters when I was playing basketball in my middle school days. It was amazing then, and it’s amazing now - it’s truly timeless. and i just noticed this time watching it how Battle doesn’t turn around to watch Timo, he just stares at Coach Carter. That’s powerful - 1:10

[@RabiaaHQ]

Man there are so many things that makes me have goosebumps: how a show of tough love and support can change the lives of troubled young men, the amount of respect that this Coach gets from his team at the end of the movie. The change in Timo Cruz’s behavior from the most troubled and disrespectful kid to being arguably the one who most respect and admired the coach (excluding Damien, being his son). Carter completely turned their lives around to the better. I would’ve loved to see any parent’s face that wanted Coach Carter out because of the lockout when their kids decided not to play to improve their grades and have better chances for a college opportunity.

“Sir I just want to say thank you.. you saved my life” that hit very close to home. When I was in hs I played football my freshman and sophomore year I wasn’t very good. Getting to my junior year I grew and got bigger. I remember getting told I was going to be on Jv tho being devastated I looked at is as a time for me to prove my ability and make everyone proud. I remember a new coach coming in over the summer and me and him instantly clicking, he was going to be a assistant on jv and my position coach. Going through the season we bonded and got very close where he wasn’t only a football coach but he was a mentor on the team I was subjected to some bullying and hazing and had a lot of issues outside of football where I fell into the slump and I thought About giving up football and taking my life, my coach was there for me everyday and always kept in touch. At the end of the season I took home that DPOY. He did in fact save my life.

Some people are really missing the point here due to lack of context. In the movie coach carter repeatedly asks Cruz what his deepest fear is. In the beginning you can wonder why he is asking that. I thought he asked it due to the fact he described Cruz as a frightened and confused young man. By asking the question he wants to maybe reach him, let him face his deepest fear or maybe even get to know him better. The thing was, they had to learn this quote in class too, so it was also a way of knowing they did not do their homework. Coach carter makes it a point that they are students at their core, not basketball players. So when they choose to learn even though the school opened up the gym against the coaches conviction, he shows him right here that he did learn and applies the knowledge on his own personality and the people he has in his environment.

It is a poem/writing titled "Our Deepest Fear" by Marianne Williamson from the book "A Return To Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles."

[@DarthTrader707]

Such a great and scary quote. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful, beyond measure. Nobody wants to look back at their life and play the "what if," game. Isn't it a scary thought to think that you could have done whatever it is you wanted to do, but never did, for whatever reason...usually because you sell yourself a story that you can't do it? That you were powerful enough, and capable enough, if you only did it? I think that quote nails it. Deep down, it's not a fear of inadequacy that haunts most people. It's that deep down, they think, long after the chance has passed, that maybe they could have done it. Maybe it could have been so different. That's what he's saying, to me.

There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking So that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, As children do. We were born to make manifest The glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; It’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, We unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we’re liberated from our own fear, Our presence automatically liberates others.

This Movie was shot at my High School and another private school for the gym scenes, and this quote gets me every time Cruz says it

[@Joshua-sw1dq]

I love the reaction from coach when he is told he saved the young man's life, seems like a very genuine reaction

[@grant8490]

This is, without a doubt, the most American thing I've ever seen. American spirit DOES NOT DIE!!! Being a melting pot of societies only makes us stronger. We are untouchable!!

[@teebee1949]

The movie had nothing to with america

[@orthotech9758]

Samuel is such a great actor. Without saying a word his eyes and facial expression did the acting for him. It's not your words and how you say them that makes a great actor, it's what you do when nothing is coming out of your mouth. Only a few actors are that gifted and he is one of them.

[@csmers3743]

Scene gives me chills everytime.. Let your light shine

[@sr20DETdrift]

there is so much truth to this it makes me cry every time. Don't be afraid to let your light shine.

I watched this movie the other day. And I saw what happened when they played their last game. But honestly....that doesn't MATTER. THIS scene...right there.....is the TRUE win for Coach Ken Carter. For him, this was about MUCH MORE than just a silly basketball game that Coach Carter was trying to teach these young men. It was MORE than just playing a game or honoring a contract. He wanted these boys to become GOOD MEN. Men who had the confidence and belief in themselves to get a good education and go to a good college college....not just stumble through high school, half-asleep with barely passing grades. He didn't want them to drop out of high school and wind up in jail or dead like his classmates did. He wanted them to be Men who treated both themselves AND their teammates and families and friends with respect. Men who had integrity and honor, both in basketball AND in life. And even though they LOST the last game, I think he taught them exactly that. And in doing so, he truly won. THAT'S what they proved to him in this scene. I'm proud of them. And I'm sure, for Coach Carter, this moment was worth more than 1000 points on the basketball court.

[@METALS3RP3NT]

One of the greatest speeches/scenes in cinema history.

[@Lchawkem]

This scene Coach Carter Was At His Most Vulnerable But A Good One He Seen The Growth In Every Single One Of His Players🤝🏽We Need More Teachers Coaches Like Coach Carter💯

[@freakboy40]

This film really truly hits home with me as I see myself as these kids back in the 80's when I played ball. I really think it saved my life. I got a college scholarship....and ended up doing very well by most standards. Otherwise I was headed for disaster for sure.

[@innerfazeqtproducs1680]

If you study to be a teacher its cuz you love kids and u care about there future. Just like a doctor there here to save lives as well. I ones told my teacher he saved my life cuz i was caught up in the streets. He bursts into tears that was my 7th grade teacher and he went to my graduation. Ones i got my bachelors he had already passed away but if it wasent for him i would be locked up or dead. So amen to all the teachers thats actually change there student's life i love all you teachers who are making a difference in kids lifes. I was a drug dealer until 8th grade i got accepted to early college for 9th grade and idk what to do but he guided this kid and told me to leave my friends behind there not always gonna there for you. I could have been shot or in jail but thanks to that teacher im a Attorney for big federal cases in texas 🙏 rip mr Saenz you will always be a father to me. And he was heavily underpaid for what he did

[@scottmannion7009]

I had a basketball coach like this he showed is the sport and made people in our school who could never fit in with footballers and the cool kids. He made us feel wanted and made us into a team. If I knew where he was now I just want to say thank you to him he changed my life and made school for me alot easier by being on that team its people like that we need more of in this world. Thank you coach u showed us even when the world feels small there's always a place where u belong and that was our team. Sir u were a legend I just wish I was back playing basketball with my team now 😔

[@turbocam1013]

The guy that plays Cruz is a amazing actor in in this scene and powerful and also notice Coach Carters facial expression in this scene Samuel L Jackson is a incredible actor so real.

[@saiken811]

This movie makes me miss my coach. I spent much of my growing days in the UK and I was lucky enough to have a wonderful person as my basketball coach. He made sure we had our values right. He visited me in my room (I was in a boarding school) when I fell ill. He helped me when I was stuck in subjects. Now that he's in his 80s and I have been back on HK since 2007, I would call him time to time to see how he is. I really appreciate for what you have don't for me and I love you Coach Stan Millington! Take care and I will give you a call again soon!

[@GravityK-b]

Sounds like a great Coach. Glad you both shared fond memories with each other.

[@saiken811]

Thank you, much appreciated.

Chris Tiger Harris it’s a quote by Marianne Williamson. She’s running for President.

[@davidsymonette9014]

This speech is powerful. I used this speech as my Monologue at my Audition . Love it!

[@AM-zh2vu]

I swear it hits me hard, when he says you saved my life.

[@NJSportsGirl2]

This is my favorite part of the movie. It just shows you how a coach is also a teacher in your life and can move you to do amazing things and help others along the way

[@robjackson5245]

A true coach is fatherly in nature.

[@danielhetue6968]

Absolutely agree with you. I love how Coach Carter unexpectedly discovered a bunch of students and athletes setting up the gymnasium as a study hall to respect each other and their coach and overcome their mistakes.

[@mohammedakhtar7664]

I found this quote in Nelson Mandela Autobiography It taught me the importance of empowering everybody around you to strive for greatness and never undermine your potential. Saved my life

[@robertocaesar]

Rick Gonzalez didn't received the recognition he deserved. Among all the young actors he was outstanding.

[@changboi4lyfe]

Best scene in the movie. One of my favorite scene of all time. Still a great movie till this day (2016)

[@Pasta_Parade]

Coach carter is on my list of 10 movies i watch at least once a year

[@Un_FaZeD]

8 years and still one of the best speeches

[@incognitonito]

16 years **

[@vik3365]

You gotta love how Junior doesn't even look back, he has faith in every word his team mate says, just like in the court... beautiful.

[@robertoa780]

How the fuck this movie only got 65 on Rotten Tomatoes? Damn!!

[@polofreesin7004]

José Roberto Alván try tripping

[@crashpal]

great movie but i think the marks were cut off due to unoriginality and cliche

[@michaelebinger943]

José Roberto Alván there are many people that don’t understand and just what to point out the bad things. Your job is to be a leader

[@itbelikethatsometimesigues513]

It deserves 0 rotten
