Cole
Trickle
(Tom
Cruise)
is a
young,
cocky
hotshot
with
little
stock
car
driving
experience
and
a
lot
of
raw
talent.
Trickle's
uncanny
ability
to
make
all
the
right
moves
on
the
racetrack
wins
him
the
backing
of
Tim
Dolan
(Randy
Quaid),
who
wants
to
put
him
in a
car.
Eventually
he
wins
the
support
of
grizzled
former
driver
Harry
Hogge
(Robert
Duvall),
a
NASCAR
legend
who
sees
that
Trickle
has
the
potential
to
be a
great
driver.
Determined
to
make
it
to
the
top,
Trickle
develops
a
healthy
rivalry
with
veteran
racer
Rowdy
Burns
(Michael
Rooker).
Along
the
way,
he
romances
Dr.
Claire
Lewicki
(Nicole
Kidman),
a
beautiful
neurosurgeon.
Hogge's
mentoring
(and
a
potential
tragedy)
leads
Trickle
through
the
dramatic
process
of
self-discovery,
which
ultimately
makes
him
a
better
driver.
Directed
by
Tony
Scott,
DAYS
OF
THUNDER
is
reminiscent
of
his
TOP
GUN,
the
film
that
rocketed
Cruise
to
stardom.
Scott
uses
spectacular
driving
and
racing
scenes
in
this
film,
which
was
nominated
for
an
Academy
Award
for
Best
Sound.
