Subscribe FreeBased on the novel by former NFL player Peter Gent, North Dallas Forty reveals the wild, and often, destructive lives of football players off the field. Nick Nolte is Phillip Elliott, an aging, painkiller-popping receiver playing for the North Dallas Bulls. After seeing a coach insist that an injured player take a painkiller and go back on the field, he begins to question the entire institution of professional sports. (Laurie Sevano)
