'INVICTUS' TRAILER in HD

Two words: OSCAR BOUND.

"From director Clint Eastwood, 'Invictus' tells the inspiring true story of how Nelson Mandela (Morgan Freeman) joined forces with the captain of South Africas rugby team, Francois Pienaar (Matt Damon), to help unite their country. Newly elected President Mandela knows his nation remains racially and economically divided in the wake of apartheid. Believing he can bring his people together through the universal language of sport, Mandela rallies South Africas underdog rugby team as they make an unlikely run to the 1995 World Cup Championship match."

The poem 'INVICTUS' by William Ernest Henley, from which Nelson Mandela drew strength while in prison.

"Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul."

Damon, is simply becoming (already is) 1 of the best actors of this generation!
Everything he has been in for years and years have been GREAT if not perfect.

This is why I play rugby. U don't see this passion in any other sport. This is the greatest sport ever

As a South African living in the States, I couldn't be prouder of this movie. I am looking forward to it! Oscar winner for Best Picture and Best Actor! I guarantee it!

My previous comment was at Freeserb..

This was a great year for me SA and me. I enjoyed this year.. 1995.. It was inspirational.. It united Southern Africa, not just South Africa.. We started playing these boys in rugby more often, it was great..

If you want to spark controversy amongst people on the internet, make something that will warm hearts and put a good feeling in every South African's soul. I'm glad Clint has made this movie because it gives recognition to one of the greatest people ever to walk on this earth. It has taken rugby from a brutal "fight" to a bridge that links all South Africans together even if they are still not happy with the country as a whole.

rest in peace MADIBA, paradise is yours - my great pain and my immense respect from Argentine

[SunriseFresh]

[SaltySangster]

I have played Hockey, volleyball, football, boxing and soccer since i was 8 until grade 12, but in grade 12 i changed from volleyball to rugby, we won 17 - 0 and the provincial banner, it was the greatest experience of my life yet, the comradely and high spirits of my fellow ruggers, it was amazing, - 2nd Row 6 foot 3, 212 pounds, Eastern Canadain rugby.

[streetLAkings]

im not a south african but i am a rugby fan and i remember watching the Springboks win it all in those uniforms it takes me back

[charms]

Morgan Freeman....always delivers, and his voice? Captivating!

[TheHolyThief]

I saw the ad on a streetcar today and had to search it up. I cannot wait to see this movie.

[jackblack]

I would love to visit South Africa. The natural beauty of the country is unsurpassed.

[andyarchitect]

best movie i have seen in a long time... one of those rare high vibing movies like forest gump and american beauty... full of love.

[mainhoondon]

I don't think Clint could have given Spike Lee a better answer than releasing this film. Best comeback ever.

[direhitx]

Rugby is getting absolutley massive and that's great but let us not forget the spirit that makes it so great, the fun and the effort

[substitute]

Clint Eastwood + Morgan Freeman + Matt Damon + Mandela + historic S.A Rugby = Oscar.

Cheers!

[elbeto]

this is the movie that i´ve been waiting a long time ago, because that man (nelson) is the greatest human been.

[vlcacek]

Whatever gods may be, whatever freedom is, when you fight for it you are hero, because it´s the furthermost goal. Rest in peace Madiba

As a white South African citizen, I am proud to say that Old President Nelson Mandela is a true inspiration! Out of all our latest presidents, Mandela is truly remarkable, out spoken and extremely wise.
I have studied his life, from a caucasion's point of view, and african point of view.

And I resent it when people ridicule him for what he believes in.
I believe that this film will portrai the true life of Nelson Mandela and honor his works, not only as a president, but also as a SA citizen

I'm a kiwi and was devastated when we lost. With the benefit of time I now think the social significance of the win for South Africa outweighed my moment of disappointment. It was the best outcome at the right time.
