      Terry Davis wrote the novel the movie was based upon. He is from Spokane and wrestled in high school. The novel is a little different in that Louden and Shute know each other and have more amicable interactions in the book compared to the movie. It’s a good and quick read.

    I was at the end of my senior year in HS in 1985 when this film came out and it was one of those moments I remember being 18 and a life ahead of me. I'm 55 now and life has thrown me quite a few curve balls and taken me down paths I never thought possible. To be 18 again in 1985., be young, strong, and naive, and not realize how life was going to change so quickly. Great film from 1985!

    The best movie of my generation. Today's kids wouldn't understand the beauty of hanging with your friends Watchung Friday Night Videos, walking downtown to the movie theater, high school dances, and the simplicity that was the 80s. I miss it. One thing I would change is this. I would date my friend Colleen all through High School and never let her go. She passed in 2022. She knows how much I love her and appreciated her. Yeap, that's what I would change.

    Watched this before regionals to motivate me. I fell in love with the sport of wrestling. Started out my freshman year unathletic with a learning disability. I didn’t win a match that year but I kept pushing and fighting. My sophomore year I won two matches at the end of the year. My junior year i improved significantly and won 14 matches but I fell short at regionals to make state. My senior year I kept pushing and kept improving. I went to regionals and pinned the kid I needed to make it. It was a feeling I’ll never forget. Of course I got my butt kicked at State but I could have cared less. I was an underdog my whole life and all I knew was hard work and having it harder than most. I’m grateful for wrestling.

Before a winner is declared the ref checks with the cards and corrects accordingly if it’s a points win.

    Wrestled 85-89 HS BUT 88' was incredible for me. Started 0-6 YUP!! 6 straight losses to start my Junior Yr but worse i was an 11th grade Varsity wrestler about to get challenged by a teamate same weight class for my spot. Life was fallin apart. Long story short this movie was aweaome! Like a Rocky for my "ages" ... John Waite singin "Changes" while Modine conquers pegboard LOL loved it! It was damn good. The scenes could do more wrestling but ok. Rocky, Karate Kid and this r best underdog sports flicks oh n The Natural. I know all the bloopers n such of thjs one n all the serious scenes n scores.

    Reverse, into the head and arm, to PIN! My son was very fond of the head and arm. He was finishing his wrestling career when this movie came out. He wrestled 189 in his senior year. After graduation, he enlisted in the United States Marine Corps! I had the honor of swearing him in.

    Loved this movie growing up, this movie made me wrestle in High-school but funny enough by collegiate wrestling rules he never needed the pin. 9-13: 1 point escape, 2 pts take down, 3 back points 14-13 final score 😊

    One thing I gotta point out. Even though the pin makes for a better ending, Louden already won the match. 1 point escape, 2 take down, 2 near fall. He was ahead 14 to 13 anyway. 😂
