Having watched the movie THE WORLDS FASTEST INDIAN several times I would highly recommend it. Anthony Hopkins gives a stellar performance in his role of a self made racing motorcyclist who through sheer determination & lots of different types of hard work becomes the top world class motorcyclist in his division.
This movie attains a high mark on the famous Rotten Tomatoes movie website of 79%:

Catholic Priest/Best Selling Author/Sociologist/Syndicated Columnist Andrew Greeley makes a bold matter of fact statement/case condemning what he says is the evil immorality & lawlessness of the current US administration in his syndicated column out today:
“America’s Leaders Violated One Of The Commandments”
July 30, 2008 - ANDREW GREELEY agreel@aol.com
“T.S. Elliot summarized the issue, “When good does evil in its struggle against evil, it becomes indistinguishable from its enemy.”
A current example is the sick morality that sees America’s program of torture during the war that “they” had done it to us and would do so again. Therefore we were not evil. The Sept. 11 attack persuaded the leaders of the country that murder, kidnapping and torture were appropriate in the war on terror. June Mayer’s carefully documented book The Dark Side demonstrates beyond doubt that the president, the vice president, the director of the CIA and their closest aides are war criminals. They violated international law, they violated American law, and they violated natural law.”
