North Dallas Forty - North Dallas Forty - DVD

Nick Nolte stars in this brutally honest entertainment about one man's rebellion against the bureaucratic, manipulative world of professional football. Based on the popular novel by former Dallas Cowboy Peter Gent, NORTH DALLAS FORTY depicts Nolte as an aging ballplayer who, through a woman he meets (Dayle Haddon), is drawn away from the masculine, violent world in which he has lived so long. In doing so, he finds himself at odds with the team's managment. The excitement, humor and drama of NORTH DALLAS FORTY is heightened by it's meticulous attention to the details of a football player's private and public life and it's authenticity on the playing field.
