Nominated for two Academy Awards, this triumphant tale of a high school basketball team's long-shot attempt to ascend to the State Championship is filled with edge-of-your-seat suspense and breathless excitement! Featuring fast-break cinematography that catches the pace of the game and intense, heart-rending performances from Gene Hackman, Barbara Hershey and Dennis Hopper, Hoosiers redefined the sports movie with a realism and frankness that make you believe in its small-town characters - and cheer for them over and over again.
Hackman is Norman Dale, a basketball coach whose chequered past has led him to a last-chance position with a nearly have him fired, Dale perseveres with a gritty demeanour and an unwavering passion for the game. But winning over the team is only half the battle in a world where small-town teams can end up playing big-time rivals...and a downtrodden outsider can rouse the pride of an entire county.
