If you missed viewing Disney’s McFarland, USA in theatres now you have the opportunity to watch it in the comfort of your own home. The Blu-ray + Digital HD and DVD are available to buy in stores today!

The film is based on the true story of Coach Jim White who loses his previous coaching job and moves with his family to McFarland, CA. In this predominately Latino community he learns about Hispanic culture and the families that work in the fields. This incredible movie shows the true underdog story of how a cross-country team goes against the odds stacked against them.

Aside from this heartwarming tale, the Blu-ray + Digital HD includes special features which are:

Bonus Features:

  • McFarland Reflections: Actor Kevin Costner joins the real-life 1987 McFarland cross-country team members and Coach Jim White as they reflect on that memorable year that the movie is based on.
  • Deleted & Extended Scenes: 6 scenes that were not included in the final cut of the movie.
  • Inspiring McFarland: Commentary from Director, Niki Caro, the real-life Coach Jim White, and some of the actors in the film about the impact of the “McFarland USA” story.
  • “Juntos” Music Video: Features Colombian singer-songwriter Juanes singing the lead single from the “McFarland USA” soundtrack.

Set Up:

  • Subtitles: This movie has 10 subtitle options.
  • Languages: The movie can be heard in 5 different languages.

Sneak Peeks of upcoming Disney movies and DVD/Blu-ray releases

This is a great movie to have at home! The special features are straightforward and easy to navigate and the visuals from this Blu-Ray + Digital HD are breathtaking to watch on screen. The story that this film tells is one that can be shared with the whole family.

So, get up and run out to the store and buy a copy. I highly recommend it.
