Hoosiers

Hoosiers primarily evokes strong feelings of Inspiration, Excitement, and Anticipation as the underdog team strives for victory against all odds. Empathy and Hope are central to the characters' journeys, particularly the coach with a spotty past and the town's basketball-loving drunk, leading to significant Satisfaction and Joy upon their ultimate success. Nostalgia for the 1950s small-town setting and a degree of Anxiety during crucial game moments also contribute to the emotional landscape.
