[edit] Story
A young man dreams, and struggles, to become a championship bowler, knowing that determination and sacrifice must come first.
Tim Matheson is the Dreamer in this Rocky rip-off. Instead of boxing, the sport in question is bowling. "Dreamer" is a ten-pin whiz in his small town, but wants to make it in the big time. Well, he does, with the help of irascible manager Jack Warden and faithful girlfriend Susan Blakely. As if to underline the resemblances between Dreamer and its cinematic role model, the musical score is by Rocky's Bill Conti.
