Gene Hackman is a high school basketball coach in 1950s Indiana whose methods–and his choice of the alcoholic Shooter (Dennis Hopper) as assistant coach–are second-guessed by nearly everyone in town. 

But his belief that teamwork is more important than star players eventually brings the school to the state championships. Based on actual events, Hoosiers remains one of the most inspiring sports movies ever made. -American Cinematheque
