McFarland, USA

An inspirational, engaging, family-geared, factually inspired, 128-minute Disney film, in which hotheaded Boise football coach Jim White (Kevin Costner), who moves his supportive wife (Maria Bello) and two daughters (Morgan Saylor and Elsie Fisher) to a dirt-poor California town in 1987, ends up building an unlikely cross-country team with seven hardworking, reluctant Latino high school students (Vincent Martella, Johnny Ortiz, Rafael Martinez, Carlos Pratts, Hector Duran, Sergio Avelar, and Michael Rey) from McFarland and coaching them to believe in themselves and to run like the wind.
