...Super Bowl revenge, as a result, was all that much sweeter for my fellow Hoosiers. Even when cultural arbiters like Hollywood pay tribute to Indiana, it's usually couched in quaintness. Sports movies like Hoosiers and Breaking Away tend to emphasize a parochial amateurness that keeps the state from being taken seriously as a pro player setting - although Indianapolis, in fact, bills itself as the world's amateur sports capital - while films like Brian's Song and The Natural showcase Chicago as an Elysian field of major-league legends...

...that can exist between a secretary and her boss. The various love stories are also well-structured and integrated into the film’s fundamental plot line. The main romance between Max and Fanny propels the movie by helping to initiate the change that occurs in Max. Even sweeter throughout the film are the love stories revolving around the more minor characters, both romantic and platonic.
