Stuff We Love: Favorite Holiday Flicks

We Are Marshall

Cast: Matthew McConaughey, Matthew Fox, Ian McShane and David Strathairn
Release date: December 22
Why you should see it: Based on a true story, this inspirational film illustrates the events of a West Virginia college after a plane carrying 75 of their revered football players and coaching staff crashed. In a town where football is almost a religion, Marshall students and their broken community put their faith in a young coach, played by McConaughey, who tries to rebuild their team and their spirit, while healing their wounds in the process. We love a tale of triumph, and with McConaughey and Fox headlining the cast, this is one movie you can be sure we'll stand in line for.
Box-office bottom line: We Are Marshall is the perfect date movie — an emotion-filled football flick that's bound to score with both genders.
