Her Homecoming dress cost more than my wedding dress.
This is such a sweet movie!!!! Wow!!! I really love the mother too,... I would say this to my daughters "You can do anything, you can have everything… the trouble is that attitudes just haven’t kept up with the opportunities" , this movie is so inspirational!
those teammates that took up the collection are the guys that will be friends for life.
I love how the dad was fit enough to jump the railings, i miss spending so much time outside like we did in the 70's and 80's
One of my favorite movies from the past. I purchased this movie on VHS many years ago because I loved it so much!
Awe, what a sweet movie. 😊 so relevant too. Her dress was way ahead of its time, as was her updo. 😊
I lvoe how the guys on the team accepted her right away! It is so sweet of them buying her the homecoming princess dress

Never seen or heard of it but I loved it. It was nice to see kids actually supporting something different
My mom and the '40s used to go to a boxing club where her brother and my uncle needs to box, now he taught her how to fight and she became so good that the boxing coach would use her as a spring partner for the lighter weight boxes there. She wanted to box in the ring but at that time there was no way that was going to happen. My mom just passed away at 83 years old and she was way ahead of her time and what she thought about what women can do. Heck, she was The first person in our family that my and I brothers used to arm wrestle because she used to drive a 57 station wagon with no power steering and we had a hard time beating her

Helen Hunt is perfect for this part as Tami playing on the men's high school football team. She was brave and determined and turned out to be an asset to the team. There was a lot of news commotion in the town and much laughter to endure. She was gracious and stayed focused and a good example for anyone who is different in their chosen field to emulate.

what an amazing young woman tami maida was to be so brave and so sure of herself at such a young age what an inspiration this woman is for young people everywhere.
I love the enthusiasm and the energy in this movie! 😊❤
So awsome ...that most of the guys accepted her right away!!!

Great Movie. I saw it years ago. Glad that I got to see it again. Thank you.
This is a great movie. I am surprised to have never seen this. The story is also fantastic. The entire cast played their parts very well. I was surprised at how well the team players adapted and were proud to be playing with such a good Quarterback especially being a woman. The townspeople really came out in support as well. This movie is truly deserving of a 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ rating with an all-star cast.
What a flashback this movie is I was 13 in 1983 and remember the story about the girl she was the first one in the country to join a male sport…. Great movie with all the stuff that’s going on now in 2023 with the boys want to be girls the girls want to be boys and cross gender athletes. This is where it all started. It’s worth a watch.

Fabulous film ! What a story. Without films like this, real stories wouldn't be known at all! Great cast.. Technical stuff by Tami herself.. wow 😍 I know nothing about American Football, but the premise resonates with me. I joined a female Basketball team at school in the 90s, but there weren't enough of us to make the league. We weren't allowed to play with the men/boys on their team even if we wanted to, and Basketball is a minimal contact sport ! 🙄🤔 This story is really special. Thank you for this upload ❤

I remember this movie as a kid. Was so excited to find in on KZread!
I saw this movie as a kid and I can highly relate to this. Back then, there were hardly any women sports. We had to choose from a limited number of sports. I remember in middle school, my school only had the option of us playing volleyball, which I hated. After complaining. complaining and complaining, we finally convinced our PE teacher to let us play soccer. The school had the fields and only the boys were allowed to play.

We must have been ahead of you. By 1983 (junior high for me), girls did most sports boys did. I did Judo and about 20% of the club were female. I had a girl on a baseball team. I knew several girls who played ice hockey. School had soccer, basketball, touch (flag) football, track, floor hockey, gymnastics, swimming, etc. The only big sports I know the girls didn't do was rugby and wrestling. Then again, the boys didn't do field hockey. There were girls at school who used the weight room. Soccer was huge for girls. We had separate boys/girls classes until PE 12, which was co-ed but included all sorts of fun sports/games -- golf, tennis, broomball, bowling, skiing, ping pong, swimming, etc. I remember seeing the movie and the girl playing football thing wasn't that big of a deal even then. Personally, the fact that a Canadian family was playing football in high school was. This is not a sport widely played in Canadian schools.

Helen Hunt, winner of an Oscar, Emmy's and Golden Globes, and Daphne Zuniga, winner of the 'Most Perfect looking Woman I Ever Saw in a Bar' (Tiny's, Fairfax, Circa 1988) in the same movie. Has to be good!!! Kathleen Wilhoite is in this? Just keeps getting better!!

I could tell this was saved from a satellite feed, with only a few minor glitches and freezes. However to make it look better since it was stretched to wide in this You Tube upload I had to change my computer monitor shape to make it come out a bit better.
Of course in reality, women against men in contact sports would get slaughtered. Thats why you will never see women compete against the guys.

Great story and great acting. Never heard of this before, so I was a bit worried it would be yet another of the many many mediocre movies that have come up on my feed lately. It was lot of fun to see a movie that was actually well directed and acted, and the story is inspirational. A very nice change from the gooey princess movies my feed has been pushing at me; I almost didn't watch it because it had "princess" in the title. I can't help thinking it wasn't quite that easy in real life as the movie shows, but after all they've got to condense it into 90 minutes, so overall I was very happy with this. Glad to have seen it.

So much Delusional Irrational Slandering and Hate for Biological Man and Biological Woman just to save Alphabet Communities asses.....
I watched the original airing of this. Wow Tim Robbins and John Stockwell. Stockwell was perhaps the most successful of that early-mid 80's period. Interesting he was a close friend of Andy Warhol.
Great movie. What's mindboggling is the current times seem to think they're the ones discovering all this now. Like it never happened before. Newsflash: it has.
