We Are Marshall

"We Are Marshall" tells an inspiring true story set in Huntingdon, West Virginia, a small town steeped in the rich tradition of college football. For decades, players, coaches, fans and families have come together to cheer on Marshall University's "Thunder Herd." For this team and this community, Marshall football is more than just a sport, it's a way of life. But on a fateful night in 1970, while traveling back to Huntingdon after a game in North Carolina, 75 members of Marshall's football team and coaching staff were killed in a plane crash. As those left behind struggled to cope with the devastating loss of their loved ones, the grieving families found hope and strength in the leadership of Jack Lengyel (Matthew McConaughey), a young coach who was determined to rebuild Marshall's football program and, in the process, helped to heal a community.

Starring Matthew McConaughey, Matthew Fox, Anthony Mackie, David Strathairn, Ian McShane, Kate Mara, January Jones, Kimberly Williams, Arlen Escarpeta, Robert Patrick, Brian Geraghty, Tommy Cresswell, Christian Kanupke, Nina Jones, Kevin Atkins

    Thunder Herd

    This is a really great film. I think the movie has captured the real sense of how this tragic accident affected this town and it was dealt with very well.

    A good movie well worth watching. You don’t need any prior knowledge of American football but it do’s help.
