Failed college coach Norman Dale gets a chance at redemption when he is hired to direct the basketball program at a high school 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.

Starring Gene Hackman and Dennis Hopper, Hoosiers is frequently ranked as the greatest sports movie ever made, receiving two Academy Award nominations: Best Supporting Actor for Dennis Hopper and Best Original Score for Jerry Goldsmith.
