Rudy (5/8) Movie CLIP - This Is for Rudy, Coach (1993) HD

"I believe I am." Was the cherry on the absolute top for me. So much in so few words. Fantastic film!

They created human character to people who didn't have character, hopefully

[@oxtailsoup6493]

Everyone loves and underdog character that, against all odds, ends up achieving what can only be described as “the impossible”. Partly because, no matter how “charmed” a life you have lead, you can always relate to someone who life has dealt a bad hand to, as most of us at one point in our lives have faced adversity as well. Great story and great acting in this movie. Another “underdog sports film” I enjoyed was Cinderella Man”.

[@Hiraghm]

Reminds me of one of the best compliments I ever had: I wasn't a football player, but I was in the marching band at my university. I loved it; it was one of the happiest times of my life. They had two rules; miss a practice, you don't get to perform at the next game. Miss a game... you're out of the band. My routine was basically: friday night get home after practice, lay out my uniform, watch some tv, grab my trumpet and head for a bar in dogtown. Members of the marching bad got free Bud Lite all night; all we had to do was play fight songs every 15 minutes. I'd get home at midnight or 2 am, go over to the 7/11 for a burrito, maybe get a couple hours sleep. At 5am on Saturdays, the music majors (I was majoring in playing video games with a minor in skipping class...) would meet at a Perkins, have breakfast, and then head over to the music building to transport the equipment over to the stadium for pre-game practice. I was the only non-music major there. Every Saturday. We'd haul the equipment to the stadium... have our practice, then I'd drive home and get something to eat, relax for an hour or so, then put on my uniform, drive back to the stadium, perform the pre-game show, cheer in the stands for the first half, do the halftime show, go around with the pep band during the second half, help haul the equipment back to the music building after the game, head home, take off my uniform and crash. One Saturday, I went home after practice, put on my uniform and made the mistake of laying down... I woke up with only a few minutes before the pre-game show began. I raced across town, got to the stadium just as the band was starting to march in. Not only was my coach there... the director of bands, Mr Christiansen, head of the entire music department of the university, was there. I immediately began apologizing as two band members helped me reverse my overlay (it was wrong side out for pre-game) and I replaced the clarinet player they'd stuck in my socket... I was humiliated, ashamed and certain I was going to be kicked out of the band... All Mr Christiansen did was smile, and say, "That's alright; we were afraid you were dead. We knew you'd never miss a game". That's the closest I've ever gotten to feeling like Rudy... and it was a terrific feeling.

That's what I love about The Man and The Myth. A certain Notre Dame alumnus, whom I will not name here, scoffed at Rudy's story, calling it pure Hollywood. I guarantee you, Rudy's one sack in his career meant just as much to him as what's his name's two national titles, four Super Bowl wins, MVP awards, passing titles, and millions of dollars in salary and endorsements. Probably even more. For a kid with a learning disability to get accepted into a prestigious university, and for that same kid to scrape and claw his way onto the practice squad due to his lack of athletic ability...whew!! It sends me the message that, "What tho the odds be great or small," you can do whatever you set your mind to do. NOTHING is impossible if you work hard enough and dream long enough. (and I apologize for that shameless plug. I actually hate Notre Dame football, but I am a Rudy fan)

[@tobaliciousholland12]

After the 1974 season, Notre Dame coach Parseghian stepped down, and former Green Bay Packers coach Dan Devine was named head coach. In Ruettiger's last opportunity to play for Notre Dame at home, Devine put him into a game as defensive end against Georgia Tech on November 8, 1975. In the movie Rudy, Devine is given a somewhat antagonistic role, not wanting Ruettiger to dress for his last game. In the real life scenario, however, it was Devine who came up with the idea to dress Ruettiger. In 2011, Ruettiger was charged with securities fraud in connection with his role as Chairman of Rudy Beverage, Inc. The government alleged a pump-and-dump scheme. A settlement of the case required Ruettiger to pay $382,866 in fines. Real life is never as tidy as the movies.
