Very pleased with this movie! It didn't feel very big or flashy, but that only complimented the film. A Cinderella story about an all-girls' basketball coach in the 1960's. The movie was well written and acted. My only "complaints" were that there could have been a tad more focus on the players (but I understand that the movie was about the coach) Also, the commentary difficult to hear/understand at times. But that's very picky. Overall, I really enjoyed this film and would highly recommend it!
