The personal journeys of marching band students told documentary style without narration., 12 May 2008
10/10
Author: debsong67 from United States

Director, Doug Lantz, provides an insightful glimpse into the world of competitive marching bands. The film offers the personal stories of how marching band literally changes lives in an affluent suburb in Ohio as well as in an inner city school in California. Powerful, inspiring and revealing, this film will change the way you think about marching band. I was in marching band, myself, and it changed my own perspective on the subject! The students in the featured bands tell their own stories and it is clear that for some, it is a lifeline. Watching the students grow and mature throughout the season is a real treat. In my book, From the 50 Yardline scores big! Looking for hope in America's future? Check the band room!
