Today, I watched the movie, Armstrong Lie by Alex Gibney. This movie is about Lance Armstrong, who is an American former professional road racing cyclist. He was diagnosed with a potentially fatal metastatic testicular cancer in 1996. After, he can recover and join the Tour de France cycling race seven times. In 1999- 2005, he won the champion of road racing cycling seven times continuous, so he called, Tour de Lance. I think that Lance Armstrong is very strong because he recovered and don’t give up the cycling. I think it is good story to people and teach us never give up everything. Also, he organized Livestrong, which is Lance Armstrong Foundation, and helps the cancer patients. It is because he wanted to attract people’s attention to help patients. And, he knows having the cancer to be painful and spend much money. Moreover, this movie talked about Lance Armstrong toke the drugs to improve his performance in his competition. Lance Armstrong claimed himself don’t take illicit drugs. Then, many newspaper and news discuss this reported. After a few years, Lance Armstrong claimed that he was drugging in the past. I feel this movie is a good movie because it can teach everybody recognizes his/her mistakes bravely. Thus, I suggest everyone should go to watch this meaningful movie.
