Eddie (1996)
Description
A few real NBA players populate this Whoopi Goldberg comedy about a Knicks fan who becomes their feisty coach and overcoming gender biases and tremendous credibility gaps, manages to turn the fictionalized losers into a winning team. Goldberg plays a limo-dispatcher Eddie who loves to keep her drivers informed of every play made by her beloved Knicks, who haven't won a game in a long time and have begun to lose fans at an appalling rate. The team's troubles only seem to increase when flamboyant Texas tycoon Wild Bill Burgess (Frank Langella) buys them. Unfortunately, though he means well, Burgess is clueless when it comes to basketball, believing more attractive cheerleaders will be the ultimate successful key. When that flops, he decides to fire the regular coach and replace him with-Eddie. Naturally, the players are less than thrilled. But her spunk, fire, and dogged sincerity gradually wins them over and spurs them on to become champions. Players include John 'Spider' Salley. Superstar player Dennis Rodman makes a cameo as do New York celebrities Donald Trump, Ed Koch, and David Letterman.
