Wind is set in the world of competitive yacht racing, where a young sailor (Matthew Modine) is intent on winning the America's Cup, as well as regaining the affections of his ex-girlfriend (Jennifer Grey). As the film opens, Modine chooses to race the America's Cup instead of staying with Grey. She leaves him and his team loses the race, leaving him devastated. Modine tracks Grey down, finding her with a new boyfriend, who happens to be an engineer. He persuades her and her new boyfriend to help him build a new yacht, which he plans on using in his pursuit to regain the America's Cup.

Graderings en resensies

A classic underdog story and pursuit of the perceptual unattainable perfection. Humility, passion, and drive give this movie a feeling like no other. This movie is for anyone who would throw away all to make their dream come true. SW.

One of my all time favorites. Ironically, my other all time favorite involves Matthew Modine and his role as a wrestler, 'Vision Quest'.

If you're into a lot of action and enjoy sail boat racing you will enjoy the cast, plot and the movie.
