Believe in Me: Directed by Robert Collector. With Jeffrey Donovan, Samantha Mathis, Doris Hargrave, Bruce Dern. In a conservative small town, a young man’s wish to coach high school basketball are tweaked by a school board decision that makes him the new coach of the girls’ team.

“This is a great family movie and a great movie for teachers to see. It especially hits home for teachers, who are of course, coaches, but also those classroom teachers who have the same relational interactions as coaches like choir teachers (me), band directors, and the like.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe casting was excellent. I did not feel that I was watching actors, but actual people. Bruce Dern did his role so well, you really despised him. (I didnu0026#39;t realize he was THAT old already. I guess Iu0026#39;M that old already!) The girls were believable, the coach was well acted, the wife was a natural pairing for him–all very good acting. I, like you, canu0026#39;t stand cheesy u0026quot;docudramas.u0026quot; You will want to watch the u0026quot;making ofu0026quot; special features. You will have a pleasant surprise about the winning shot in the movie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI highly, highly, recommend this movie. I have been encouraging my colleagues and all my students to rent it.”
