Marshall University: Ashes to Glory

The true story that would inspire the emotional 2006 Hollywood blockbuster "We Are Marshall" is told in this powerful documentary. West Virginia's Marshall University was struck by tragedy in 1970 after its Thundering Herd football squad, along with nearly the entire coaching staff, perished in an airplane crash. The new team's struggles and triumphs are movingly chronicled in this sensitive and inspiring film that uses recently found footage from the era and exclusive interviews. 117 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English.
