Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Eddie
When Edwina "Eddie" Franklin, a New York cab driver, becomes the coach of her hometown Knicks, she makes history as the first female coach in any major professional sport. Whoopi Goldberg adds color and pizazz to Eddie's character, and NBA players such as Dennis Rodman, Reggie Miller and Larry Johnson make spectacular appearances in the movie. This is the ideal movie for the restless Knicks fan!
