Short description
Failed college coach Norman Dale gets a chance at redemption when he is hired to coach a high school basketball team in a tiny Indiana town. After a teacher persuades star player Jimmy Chitwood to quit and focus on his long-neglected studies, Dale struggles to develop a winning team in the face of community criticism for his temper and his unconventional choice of assistant coach: Shooter, a notorious alcoholic.

What's left behind the scenes

  • Before filming the scene where Dennis Hopper's character (1936-2010) appears on the field drunk during a game, the actor asked director David Anspach to warn him 10 seconds before the command “Action!”. He spent those 10 seconds spinning around his own axis, after which he could barely stand and genuinely looked completely drunk.
