Madison -- The Miss Madison may have seen better days, but she's about to go out in a blaze of glory. The pride of Madison, Indiana, the dilapidated hydroplane's been entered in the 1971 Gold Cup Championship race, whose $50,000 prize money has been raised by the town itself

A "generation gap" is happily closed after a father unsuccessfully tries to manipulate his teenage daughter's romantic interests.

A father-son action/drama based on the inspiring true story of the tiny river town of Madison, Indiana and its legendary efforts during the hydroplane racing season of 1971. In addition to the thrills of 180-mph flat-bottomed boat racing, the picture captures the spirit of a small American river town struggling to stay alive as water transportation has virtually disappeared.

Get ready for a hilarious dive into pure Disney fun as a middle-aged dad goes overboard right into the generation gap. Charlie McCready (Bob Crane) haplessly invites punishment by trying to keep up with his daughter's rowdy teenage friends in volleyball, waterskiing...and even bodysurfing! His overprotective meddling soon drives her away from Bart (Kurt Russell), her beach-bum boyfriend, right into the arms of a crazed beatnik painter. Featuring high-speed action, young romance, and a supporting cast of very familiar faces including Dick Van Patten and Bruno Kirby, SUPERDAD is a heartwarming Disney comedy with something fun for everyone: young or old, parent or teen!
