Loosely based on an actual team in a tiny town in Indiana that won the state championship in 1954.
It is not meant to be a "true story", rather a fictional tale about an event that did happen.
Anyway, it is a solid movie that stands up to the test if time 100%. Gene Hackman does a great job.
Interesting little factiod - the producer purposefully picked "actors" to play the team who never acted in their lives.
He wanted the players to appear like real small town kids. Because they were.
