Gracie
2007
After a tragedy, 15-year-old Gracie (Carly Schroeder) channels her grief by fighting to get girls into varsity soccer in this inspiring drama. Despite her passion and resolve, she's blocked on all sides as she argues for the right of women to play competitive soccer. The film -- set in 1978 -- is based on the real-life story of actress Elisabeth Shue (playing Gracie's mom), who championed the cause of women's sports as a teen.

Elisabeth Shue was fantastic, but the rest of the cast was fairly lackluster and didn't have the acting chops to pull this off well.
