The lives of three longtime friends—an American football hero (Dennis Quaid), his college sweetheart (Jessica Lange) and his devoted nephew (Timothy Hutton)—remain intertwined for a quarter of a century in this acclaimed romantic drama directed by Taylor Hackford ("AN OFFICER AND A GENTLEMAN"). Based on Frank Deford’s epic novel.
