Editorial Reviews

Nothing moves the sports purist like the charge of the underdog. The more improbable, the better. And in Hoosiers, director David Anspaugh's wonderful celebration of the sporting spirit, a small-town Indiana high school basketball team comes out of nowhere and, against all odds, makes it all the way to the state finals. (The fact that it's based on true story from 1954 gives this "Rocky" story a little extra punch.) Washed-up college coach Norman Dale (Gene Hackman) and basketball nut/town drunk Shooter (Dennis Hopper) lead a ragtag collection mostly of farm boys, to glory. Along the way, they find a higher meaning to life and realize they can accomplish far more than they had ever imagined. Although the theme here is an old one, the film is enlivened both by Hackman's artistry and by Hopper's touching performance -- one that earned him an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor in a Supporting Role. Charles Salzberg, Barnes & Noble
