Vision Quest (1985)
classic eighties movie
We used to watch this before big games. I especially like the Ronnie James Dio / Don Henley / Madonna soundtrack.
whatever happened to shute??? I hate wrestling but this is a classic underdog story.
Linda Fiorentino says she really likes 'big hands'. Hilarious. The wrestler character here is only about 100 times more believable than the Emilio Estevez character in Breakfast Club. Linda Fiorentino has great 80's hair in this film. The scenes with him climbing up the peg wall are the best non-Shute scenes by far. This picture has really solid naturalistic dialogue.
Iron Jawed Angels (2004)
Surprisingly excellent
I didn't expect this movie to be so good. I couldn't turn it off. I disagree with the comment of another user that the music doesn't work. Sure, it's a period piece, but it's still an important contemporary issue in many parts of the world. So the music must be modern to order to relate the issue to our time. A great job by the director, writers and actors across the board.
