Radio (2003)
Description
Coach Jones' life is also enriched by Radio, from whom he learns to value friendship and family ties as much as he does coaching football. Still, there are those in town who believe that Coach Jones' devotion to the young man is distracting him from his duties as head coach of the football team. There are several attempts to have Radio barred from the classroom and, after his mother's untimely death, remanded to a mental-health facility.

Ignore the naysayers, Hollywood doesn't make movies like these anymore... Although Cuba is somewhat the leading character, Ed Harris performance was flawless and it's a great movie because we can feel in our hearts The Love we have inside when it comes to help others that are less fortunate. This is a great movie to watch with younger children

Though probably well-intentioned, Radio comes off as manipulative of its audience and exploitative of the mentally challenged.

[Y]et another movie that takes a mentally challenged character and turns him into this kind of deity, this saint-like mascot who everybody else learns life lessons from.

Rarely have good intentions been wrapped in such a sticky package.
