Wildcats
Synopsis: Central High is an inner-city Chicago combat zone sometimes called a school. It has a brawn-before-brains football team of rowdy rappers, bruisers and losers. What's Molly McGrath doing there? Coaching football!
All-American charmer Goldie Hawn is Molly, who turns the team's wayward ways into winning plays in this comedy of heart, family and football directed by Michael Ritchie (The Bad News Bears). The Wildcats are a motley crew with a perfect record: zero victories. But when the spunky new coach gets into the groove, the kids start resembling a team and go for the glory! In fact, a pair of these players would later reteam in two box-office hits: Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrelson (White Men Can't Jump, Money Train).

But when they cross paths with a group of diamond thieves, the pair team up in search of the biggest score of them all.

Life is good for Mitch (Crystal), yet something troubles him: the ghost of leathery trail boss Curly. And when he finds a hidden treasure map in Curly's old hat, Mitch is sure he's being told "Go West!" So it's westward ho-ho for urban cowboys Mitch, his good buddy Phil (Stern) and Mitch's goof-off brother (Lovitz).
