Apparently, this movie did stay seem to stay long in the local movie theaters, but The Travelling Toe and Dear Friend were able to see it at the local multiplex before it left. This is the story of a young man standing at the finish line of the Boston matheron that Sunday the bombs were unleashed and carnage ensured.
A synopsis of the story from the internet is as follows:
Jeff Bauman loses both of his legs when two bombs explode during the Boston Marathon on April 15, 2013. After regaining consciousness in the hospital, Jeff is able to help law enforcement identify one of the suspects, but his own battle is just beginning. With unwavering support from his family and girlfriend, Bauman embarks on a long and heroic journey to physical and emotional rehabilitation.
Jeff is the young man who was shown in a wheelchair being pushed by a man in a cowboy hat. It took Jeff sometime before he was in the right place to meet his protector and learned his story and why Carlos was there.

Jake did an amazing job in the role. Am sure he had to work on his upper body strength as the role required Jake to get in and out of a wheelchair numerous times. Just be aware that the F-word is used all the time.
The Travelling Toe awards this movie 2 middle toes up with a Boston strong tee shirt.
