With all the excitement of the Academy Awards, and all the big names up to win this year, and all the drama about Argo, and all the adorableness that was Jennifer Lawrence, there are many movies that win awards without all the fanfare of some of the bigger emsembles. Last year, Undefeated won an Oscar for Best Documentary Feature, and I can’t recall even hearing about this movie until recently, a full year after its win.
No hope. No future… Until a football season united a team and revealed the character that turned them into heroes. UNDEFEATED, an Academy Award®-winning documentary (2011 Best Documentary Feature – Dan Lindsay, TJ Martin and Rich Middlemas), is the inspiring and moving tale of three underprivileged student-athletes from inner-city Memphis and their volunteer coach, Bill Courtney, trying to help them beat the odds on and off the field.
The UNDEFEATED Blu-ray™ and DVD special features include an Audio Commentary with directors Dan Lindsay and TJ Martin; Deleted Scenes; a Black and White Teaser Trailer; and a “The Making of Undefeated” featurette.
My husband loves his football movies and this one was perfect to add to his collection – it’s just unfortunate that we may have missed it because it wasn’t well-known! If this is the first you’ve heard about this amazing documentary, I encourage you to pick up your copy or rent it today!
