Friday Night Lights

Synopsis:

Based closely on the non-fiction bestseller, this critically-acclaimed drama takes a hard look at the reality behind small town high school football in America. In Odessa, Texas, an obsession with winning turns student-athletes into over-pressured and expendable soldiers in a community war against shame and obscurity. Billy Bob Thornton stars as Coach Gary Gaines who, in the wake of great expectations and early failures, attempts to guide his troubled team to a state championship for the sake of glory and appeasement. A refreshing and entertaining alternative to the conventional sports movie.

Casts: Billy Bob Thornton, Derek Luke

Duration : 112 minutes
