15 Most Exciting Movies Coming In March 2020
11. The Way Back
Jack Cunningham was a basketball ace with a full university scholarship when, for reasons known only to him, he forfeited his future and walked away from the game. Years later, spiralling down into alcoholism that cost him his marriage, he's asked to coach basketball at his old high school.
Like him, the school has fallen far from grace but, surprising nobody more than himself, he accepts. With the boys starting to come together as a team, it seems that Jack may finally have found a way to confront the demons that derailed his life and the unspeakable loss that took away his hope.
One of those films that use sports as a vehicle for healing the deep wounds of the past and finding the road to redemption, The Way Back could easily have been formulaic and forgettable. However, this is Ben Affleck's first starring role after his highly publicised stint in rehab back in 2018. Already a powerful actor when he's invested in a role, you can expect a highly personal portrayal of addiction and redemption in his performance.
