"In one of the opening scenes of The Mighty Macs, you're looking down from the ceiling into the beautiful, massive rotunda at the entrance of Immaculata College. It's mostly empty and quiet, yet there's a sense that something big is about to come to that grand hall. 'When next you see this space,' an unspoken voice seems to whisper, 'it will be immortalized in a moment, and things will never be the same.' And so this incredible story begins.
"And what a story! You might think it was just fanciful screenwriting were it not based on the amazing true account of Cathy Rush and the Immaculata women's basketball team in the early 1970's."
In a recent Catholic Online movie review, Jennifer Hartline offers her thoughts on The Mighty Macs, a movie, written and directed by Tim Chambers, that is designed to tell the story of beginnings of the Immaculata College (now Immaculata University) women's basketball program and its rise to become the women's basketball dynasty. The movie opens in theaters nationwide today (21 October).
