Incredible to do such a disservice to such an amazing man with such an amazing story by totally omitting what HE professes to be THE ONLY reason he was able to forgive his tormentors and be rid of the alcoholism and nightmares. The fact that everything changed for him the very moment he gave himself completely over to Christ at a Billy Graham crusade is so unnerving for some that even when they make a tribute short film to him they can't bring themselves to acknowledge it...sad.
His own autobiography "Devil At My Heels" is a better read. And it's true, they left out is conversion and that's why he turned down several offers by Tony Curtis for the rights to his story because they didn't want to include it either - until Louis got them to contractually agree to tell that part of his story in the movie....which never got made.
just finished the hillenbrand book... unbelievable but true. disappointed this report left out the true reason for his longevity and perseverance. His final surrender to Jesus Christ rescued his life.

They conveniently left out the part about Billy Graham. Unbroken is a great book though.

I'm in the middle of Hillenbrand's book. I'm so glad Zamp's story was captured and can be shared with millions now.
