It's Good to Be Alive (1974)

A touching portrait!
Ruby Dee made a very fine acting in this poignant story about the personal tragedy of Roy Campanella the renowned catcher of the Brookyn Dodgers . He battles against the awful depression and with the great and unvaluable help of his therapist he wins and overcomes .
It's impossible for any viewer not be touched when he tells to 80.000 fans in The Angeles Coliseum: It's good to be alive!
Tastefully directed by Michael Landon.

Roy Campanella Rules!!
This is a great movie about baseball great Roy Campanella(Paul Winfield)and how he persevered after a paralyzing autombile accident.It's a must see!!
