High school wrestler Louden Swain is a man obsessed, trying to shed 23 pounds in a dangerously short time and take on Shute, the undefeated, tough-as-nails 168-pound Champion who's the best wrestler in the state.
Matthew Modine stars as the mop-headed student undeterred in his 'Vision Quest' until the day a sexy drifter (Linda Fiorentino) threatens to pin Louden and his dreams to the mat of unrequited love.
The hit soundtrack features Journey's Only the Young, Foreigner's Hot Blooded and John Waite's Change. In her first film, Madonna shines while performing Gambler and Crazy For You for Vision Quest.
