The true story of Richard Pimentel, a brilliant speaker with a troubled past.
As a young man, Pimentel (Ron Livingston) realized that he had a remarkable gift for speech. Pimentel's idol is College Bowl founder Dr. Padrow (Hector Elizondo), but when he meets the idol, the ambitious young speaker is informed by Padrow that no one will listen to him until he has lived a full life. In light of this, he is joining the military and preparing for service in Vietnam.
In hard fights, Pimentel loses most of his hearing and is left with permanent tinnitus. Then when others say he will never achieve his dreams because he is deaf, the veteran makes it his job to prove them wrong.
Please confirm your loan of this film by entering the PIN of your library card. (Due to Deichman's transition to a new library system, borrowers from Deichman must also use a PIN code when confirming loans from now on.)
You have unused loans this month, but your library has a limit of the total amount of loans that can be used by all loaners each month. That limit has been reached. We have notified your library, but if it chooses not to increase the limit, you cannot loan any more films this month, even if you have not used up your individual loans unfortunately.
