Ed Harris and Cuba Gooding Jr. are great in this.

Radio stars Ed Harris as football coach Harold Jones. Coach Jones has been teaching football all his life and loves the game. However he does not spend much time with his wife and daughter played by Debra Winger and Sarah Drew. One day Radio, played by Cuba Gooding Jr., comes by the football field while the coach's team is practicing for the game. Some members of the team, then tie up Radio and throw him into a building. They then bang on the building and finally Coach Jones suspects something is wrong. He comes over and helps Radio, who is frightened, and from that point on Coach Jones and Radio shares a very special bond. Radio becomes the highlight of every football game and really enjoys participating in the football games and at school events. He also becomes Coach Jones's main interest in life over football which at first was his main priority before both his family and Radio.
The movie is a true story, it is very well acted, and I would recommend it to anyone.
