Biography Of Jackie Robinson
EZTakes, a movie download service, has posted the 1950 movie The Jackie Robinson Story at Google Video. Jackie Robinson plays himself in this biopic of his life and his career as a Negro League star to his historic role as the first black man to play for a Major League Baseball team. The movie was made a mere three years after Robinson broke the color barrier, so the civil rights issues that make his role in baseball’s integration historic and the virulent prejudice he faced are given short shrift in the film.
