Product Details:
| New Jersey 1978. 15-year-old Gracie Bowen (newcome Carly Schroeder) is still reeling from the death, in a car accident, of her brother Johnny, a star player on the high-school soccer team. When Gracie defies nearly everyone’s wishes by vowing to replace Johnny under the aegis of cantankerous Coach Calasanti, it irritates many including her parents (Elisabeth Shue, Dermot Mulroney) and her best friend, Jena. Gracie persists and wins the hearts of her most strident detractors, surmounting one obstacle after another and racing toward certain victory. A moving feel-good story inspired by the real-life events that followed the untimely 1988 death of William Shue, the brother of cast members Elisabeth and Andrew Shue and executive producer John Shue. |
