Movie Triolet: Rudy

Movie triolet inspired by the movie "Rudy". Rudy is a true story of an Indiana kid with the 
dream of playing football at Notre Dame. He was too small and too slow to even be 
considered. Not to denied, he played on the practice team for three years. Finally, in the last 
minute of his final game, his attitude earned him a spot in the game. One shining moment, 
where a dream came true. Rudy is now a motivational speaker.


You moved the thing that wouldn’t move.
You pushed when no one thought you should.
Despite how hard they made it seem.
You moved the thing that wouldn’t move.
You didn’t let them steal your dream.
When no one else believed you would.
You moved the thing that wouldn’t move.
You pushed when no one thought you should.

Top marks for you, sir, as I am ( regrettably nowadays) A Notree Dame fan and I loved this movie. I thought it was one of the Ten best of its year, period. Simple and impeccable placement of the lines. Well done. Regards, Gerard.
