This is the real life story of high school coach Jim White (Kevin Costner) who moves to McFarland, California to take up a job as football coach. When that doesn't work he decides to start a cross country team at McFarland. Jim soon bonds with his Mexican American runners who work all day long as pickers in the field. Jim brings running to help lift his runners out of poverty and provides for them a haven. I'm a cross country runner myself, so when I saw this movie, I thought to myself "Yes, finally a movie about cross country." But you don't have to be a runner to enjoy this movie. You just have to enjoy good films. Costner does a great job and the movie was really well done. Go check it out.
