Sally Field is unforgettable as Norma Rae, the spunky Southern millworker who becomes a modern-day heroine. Together with Ron Leibman, a New Yorker who comes to the mill to organize a union, Field crafts a bigger-than-life story of guts and determination out of one of the most true-to-life movies ever made in Hollywood. As the fight against the oppressive mill bosses escalates, the drama builds, climaxing in a scene of defiant courage you will remember long after the movie is over. Brilliantly directed by Martin Ritt and co-starring Beau Bridges as Norma Rae's husband, this is a movie that will grab your attention, outrage you and, above all, inspire you.
