★★★★ · Against odds, indeed · trafalgar · 2004-03-19

Caterpillar Tractor Co. presents this WWII-era story of their program to hire handicapped workers. There's an overview of how the program works, followed by brief bios of about 20 men. They are respectfully presented as outstanding workers with excellent attitudes, who ask no special favors, just the chance to contribute. No camp/humor value here, just a genuinely inspiring little film.
