Remember the Titans is a American drama film released in 2000. It was directed by Boaz Yakin, and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer for Walt Disney Pictures, and starred Denzel Washington as Coach Herman Boone. Remember the Titans centers around racial tensions in the football team of the newly integrated T.C. Williams High School in Alexandria, Virginia.

The movie is based on actual events that took place in 1971, when T.C. Williams and the Titans won the state championship. However, the events depicted in the movie differ from history in many important respects.

The film also used many 1970s popular songs like Steam's "Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye" and Marvin Gaye's & Tammi Tarrell's "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" on its soundtrack.
