I always enjoy movies that are based on real events. McFarland, USA is one of those movies that tells a great story! It doesn’t hurt at all the Kevin Costner (who just seems to get better with age!) is the main character. This movie really has you routing for this team. It’s a great movie that everyone should see! It tells a great story from 1987 in an interesting and well thought-out film and will open in theaters February 20, 2015.

Based on the 1987 true story, “McFarland, USA” follows novice runners from McFarland, an economically challenged town in California’s farm-rich Central Valley, as they give their all to build a cross-country team under the direction of Coach Jim White (Kevin Costner), a newcomer to their predominantly Latino high school. Coach White and the McFarland students have a lot to learn about each other but when White starts to realize the boys’ exceptional running ability, things begin to change. Soon something beyond their physical gifts becomes apparent—the power of family relationships, their unwavering commitment to one another and their incredible work ethic. With grit and determination, the unlikely band of runners eventually overcomes the odds to forge not only a championship cross-country team but an enduring legacy as well. Along the way, Coach White realizes that his family finally found a place to call home and both he and his team achieve their own kind of American dream.
