Undefeated (2011)
As Bill Courtney, coach of the seemingly hapless Manassas Tigers, puts it, football doesn't build character, it "reveals" it. In this Oscar-winning documentary, Courtney and the rest of his perennially underperforming and underfunded football team are put to the test in trying to reverse their fortunes. It takes a whole lot of persistence, patience, and tough love from the coach, but eventually he's able to instill enough confidence in his charges to help them learn how to win under the lights and in life.
