Synopsis :
À l’école secondaire, Jack Cunningham avait tout pour lui. Vedette du basketball, il aurait pu fréquenter les meilleures universités et même avoir une carrière professionnelle, mais, au lieu de cela, il a choisi de s’éloigner du sport. Des années plus tard, on lui propose de devenir l’entraîneur de l’équipe de basketball dans son ancienne école. Jack accepte à contrecoeur, mais, alors que les jeunes joueurs s’améliorent et s’investissent de plus en plus dans le jeu, il réalise que la vie lui donne une deuxième chance.
Voici le communiqué (en anglais) :
(March 19, 2020 – Burbank, CA) Warner Bros. will make the current theatrical release “The Way Back” available via digital EST in the U.S. and Canada on March 24, with international markets to follow, in order to meet increased demand for in-home entertainment options in light of the current global health crisis. The announcement was made today by Toby Emmerich, Chairman, Warner Bros. Pictures Group.
“With audiences largely unable to view films in theatrical release under current circumstances, we have decided to provide the alternative of early digital ownership of our currently released titles to people looking for great entertainment options,” said Emmerich. “So, while we remain big fans of the theatrical experience and hope audiences are able to return to cinemas in the near future, we understand that these are challenging times and offering this option simply makes sense.”
“The Way Back” will be available to own in high definition and standard definition from select digital retailers, including Prime Video (U.S. only), Apple TV, iTunes, Google Play, YouTube, DirecTV, FandangoNOW, PlayStation, Vudu, Microsoft Store on Xbox and Windows, and others for the suggested retail price of $19.99.
“THE WAY BACK” – Academy Award winner Ben Affleck (“Argo,” “The Accountant”) stars in “The Way Back,” directed by Gavin O’Connor (“The Accountant,” “Warrior”). Jack Cunningham (Affleck) once had a life filled with promise. In high school, he was a basketball phenom with a full university scholarship, when suddenly, for reasons unknown, he walked away from the game, forfeiting his future. Now years later, Jack is spiraling down, triggered by an unspeakable loss, and drowning in the alcoholism that cost him his marriage and any hope for a better life. When he is asked to coach the basketball team at his alma mater, which has fallen far since his glory days, he reluctantly accepts, surprising no one more than himself. As the boys start to come together as a team and win, Jack may have finally found a reason to confront the demons that have derailed him. But will it be enough to fill the void, heal the deep wounds of his past, and set him on the road to redemption?
