I did just see "Dare to Dream", though — it's the documentary about the US Women's soccer team. It's great; lots of interviews with the players (Mia Hamm, Julie Fowdy, the whole "original" bunch, including a couple of spots by current star Abby Wambach), plenty of footage of their games, the ups and downs of World Cup play and the Olympics... I haven't had the chance to show my daughter, yet, but I think she'll love it. You’re welcome… I did just see “Dare to Dream”, though — it’s the documentary about the US Women’s soccer team.

I'm glad we did. It was a good movie, but it was pretty rough - there were some "mature" dating scenes (a bit beyond that, but I'm not sure how to say it), and Gracie got smacked around on the pitch quite a bit. Good story overall, but we're going to wait to let our daughter see it; she gets intimidated by roughness in games, and it might scare her a bit. Older/other kids may not have a problem, of course...
