Richard Donner directed this compassionate tale concerning the daily struggles of handicapped citizens. The film deals with the volatile relationship between Roary (John Savage), who has unsuccessfully tried to kill himself, and the hair-trigger Jerry (David Morse), a basketball player who has no money to pay for an operation to repair his knee. Roary, who has been permanently crippled after jumping off a building, travels an emotional route from being deeply disturbed and embittered to slowly regaining confidence in himself. Helping him along the road to emotional recovery is Louise (Diana Scarwid), a young woman dealing with the handicapped who, in the process, comes to terms with her own limitations. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

    This film is one of the best films I have ever seen. A truely touching story (and at times humorous) with great acting. It's a shame this one has never been put on DVD. I see that it is now available on DVD. Do yourself a favor and rent it.

    Every once in awhile you find a movie you consider a hidden gem. This is one of them. Even though it is 30 years old, it is a wonderful story. It's fun to watch David Morse in his first movie. The title comes from Morse's characters love for basketball. But the gist of the story has to do with interpersonal relationships, especially when dealing with those handicapped. It's a wake up film. While being entertained, this drama makes you think deeply on your own views of other people. I recommend this movie to everyone.
