Gracie (film)
Gracie is a 2007 American historical sports drama film directed by Davis Guggenheim. It stars Carly Schroeder as Gracie Bowen, Dermot Mulroney as Bryan Bowen, Elisabeth Shue as Lindsay Bowen, Jesse Lee Soffer as Johnny Bowen, and Andrew Shue as Coach Owen Clark.
Gracie takes place in New Jersey, United States in 1978, before 1972's Title IX had taken much effect in women's college sports and when organized women's soccer was still very rare in the United States. Gracie, the film's central protagonist, overcomes the loss of her brother by convincing her family and school to allow her to play varsity soccer on an all-boys team. The story is very loosely based on the childhood experiences of Elisabeth Shue.
The novelization Gracie, written by Suzanne Weyn, was released in June 2007.
Plot
It is 1978 and 15-year-old tomboy Gracie Bowen, who lives in South Orange, New Jersey, is crazy about soccer, as are her three brothers and their former soccer star father. Although Gracie wants to join her brothers and neighbor Kyle in the nightly practices her father runs, she is discouraged by everyone except her older brother, Johnny.

Gracie
by: Bic RungaGracie
Gracie takes the bottles from the porch we you had left them,
There are age old dregs of wine you never shared.
Drivin' down the motorway, with all the best intentions,
She's a picture of perfection with her cut and coloured hair.
But it's you she thinks of in the hours while she's awake,
She takes her lipstick from her case to make a smile.
You she thinks of when she thinks of her mistakes,
Regrets, an open road that streches out for miles.
Coffee pots and bottle tops, and all of this disorder,
She soaks the plates in the dishwater 'til it's cold.
Her reflection in the windows of the stores around the corner,
Walk beside her as she's stridin' down the road.
But it's you she thinks of in the hours while she's awake,
She takes her lipstick from her case to make a smile.
You she thinks of when she thinks of her mistakes,
Regrets, an open road that streches out for miles.
lalalalalalalala, lalalalalalala, lalalalalalala, lalalalalalala
lalalalalalala.
You, she thinks of in the hours while she's awake,
She takes her lipstick from her case to make a smile.
You she thinks of when she thinks of her mistakes,
