Best Football Movie

[Runwildboys]

The Program

That was about what Halle Berry looks like with long hair......Was there a game on TV behind her or something?

Maybe not a football movie per se but I loved loved the movie “Radio”.

 

[Tabascocat]

All the Right Moves with Cruise and Hayden Fox(Craig T. Nelson) was good too

Semi Tough with Nick Nolte and Kris Kristofferson and The Express about Ernie Davis is good

I think JM was more about the agent than the player.

It showed the Dallas Cowboys!

Getting their butts kicked, IIRC!

I have the actual game on DVD and we tore the Cardinals UP that night. It was Christmas and a Monday night game. (It's one of my favorites. I love when the Cowboys rip teams a new one.) All the Oscars in the world won't change the real score.

Friday Night Lights

Also a great tv series

That qualifies as a football movie in my book and it's my thread and my book so good choice.

Nick Nolte was in North Dallas Forty, another great one. Burt Reynolds was in Semi Tough.

The Express was very good as was Woodlawn about Tony Nathan, the first black player recruited by Bear Bryant.

I just watched Touchback to finish out the high school part of the program and I like it better every time I see it. It's a really good people movie and asks that age old question "if you could go back and change it, would you"? But I am easy, you can put Kurt Russell in Mama Mia and I'd watch it.

I wonder when Lundy's gonna chime in and post Bend It Like Beckham.

I dunno and I am wondering if Elvis made any football movies?

If we're moving onto soccer - then Escape to Victory is a must see film. Stallone, Michael Caine and Pele on the same team!
