A tribute to the Hotshots

Joseph Kosinski's "Only the Brave" is a deeply moving recounting of the events leading up to the death of 19 firefighters, known as the Granite Mountain Hotshots, while trying to protect an Arizona town in 2013. A serious of unfortunate events put the crack team in the path of a massive fire that overwhelmed them, leaving only one survivor. With a cast that includes Josh Brolin, Miles Teller, Jeff Bridges and Taylor Kitsch, this loving tribute is a reminder of what real heroes look like.
